Ingredients:

- 2 cups beer
- 2 Granny Smith apples
Instructions:
-
Preparation:
- Begin by gathering all the ingredients and equipment needed for the recipe.
- Slice the onions thinly.
- Core and slice the Granny Smith apples into wedges.
- Ensure the sauerkraut is drained and ready to use.
-
Searing the Sausages:
- Heat a large frypan over medium-high heat.
- Once hot, add the Weisswurst sausages to the pan. Sear them until they develop a golden-brown crust on all sides. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
- If the sausages release any fat during cooking, drain it off from the pan.
-
Adding Onions, Sauerkraut, and Beer:
- Spread the sliced onions and sauerkraut evenly over the seared sausages in the pan.
- Pour the beer over the sausages, onions, and sauerkraut.
-
Cooking:
- Cover the frypan with a lid to trap the steam and heat.
- Reduce the heat to medium and let the sausages simmer in the beer mixture for 15 to 20 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together, and the sausages to cook through.
- Occasionally check and gently stir the ingredients to ensure even cooking.
-
Adding Apples and Seasoning:
- After the sausages have cooked through and the onions have softened, add the sliced Granny Smith apples to the pan.
- Season with salt, pepper, or any other desired seasonings to taste. Stir gently to combine.
-
Final Cooking:
- Recover the frypan with the lid and allow the apples to cook with the other ingredients for an additional 2 minutes. This helps to soften the apples slightly and infuse them with the flavors of the dish.
-
Serving:
- Once everything is cooked to perfection, remove the frypan from the heat.
- Serve the Weisswurst in Beer immediately while it’s hot and flavorful.
- You can pair this dish with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad for a complete meal.
