Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Sauerkraut Base
Pour the sauerkraut into the bottom of your slow cooker. For maximum flavor, leave the brine—this is what gives the potatoes their tangy richness.
Step 2: Layer Potatoes and Sausage
Evenly arrange the chopped potatoes over the sauerkraut. Place the sliced Polish sausage on top.
Step 3: Mix the Seasoned Broth
In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, caraway seeds, and bay leaf. Pour the mixture evenly over the sausage and potatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 4: Slow Cook
Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 4 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the sausage is heated through.
Step 5: Toss and Serve
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Gently toss everything together so the softened sauerkraut and flavorful juices coat the potatoes and sausage evenly.
