Yes, you can brown the kielbasa under a broiler to enhance its flavor. This can add a nice caramelization and deepen the taste of the dish. After slicing the kielbasa into pieces, place them on a baking sheet and broil for a few minutes until they are browned to your liking, then proceed with the rest of the recipe.

I am really gonna try this one. I’m from the Netherlands and I looks so much like a real dutch meal we called zuurkool stamppot (mashed sauerkraut) that’s with sauerkraut, mashed potatoes, bacon mixed together, with smoked sausage called in Dutch rookworst. We mostly eat it in the winter

I’ve been making Kapusta for years. My recipe is about the same. I do add sliced potatoes as a filler, and shredded carrots for color. Always make perogies to go with. One of my favorite meals, and everyone lives it.

You can absolutely use fresh kielbasa!

Thoroughly enjoyed this meal! We are not Polish, but have Irish, German, Hungarian backgrounds. Never did the sweet sauerkraut before. Easy to make and it melts in your mouth! Thanks! His will be a staple in our house from now on.

Instead of the brown sugar, my Gramma chopped up an apple and mixed in with sauerkraut and onions. Still one of my favorites, but now I do it in my instant pot! I don’t smell it cook for as long this seems to be a good thing! It IS delicious the next day!

I have made this several times with great success and rave reviews from family. However, you make no mention of fresh or smoked kielbasa. I have made it with smoked lielbasa, but prefer fressh. Can you use fressh kielbasa?
