    Very nice comforting stew. I like the contrast between the richness of the cream the piquancy of the sauerkraut. Used smoked paprika for the sweet and reduced the amount by about 1/2. Served with boiled potatoes. Made for the SD cookbook club.

    My family in Slovenia makes a similar dish so I was excited to make/try this. It was very good! I followed the recipe exactly and ate it, as suggested, with boiled potatoes. I had huge onions so I only used three...

    This was excellent! I made it in the slow cooker at the cottage, and it smelled wonderful all day. Next time I'll bring the sauerkraut to a boil on the stove, or leave it in the slow cooker longer. Delicious flavours from simple ingredients. The hot paprika had an unexpected but nice kick to it. Definitely add the sour cream (or I added some creme fraiche that I had) at the end to balance out the flavours. I had a fair bit of sauce left and wish I had good break to soak it up with.

    I used 2 large sweet onions - definitely enough. My sauerkraut had caraway, so I didn’t add any extra. Served this over egg noodles - not potatoes. Very delicious. My German husband loved it!

    I grew up with original Hungarian dish, it’s a family favorite and this recipe is absolutely delicious. My changes: cut the pork into slightly larger pieces, add three cloves of minced garlic, eliminate the caraway, double both paprikas and bloom them in a slurry of the sauce from the stew, and add parboiled red potatoes (unpeeled and cut into bite-size pieces if larger) when adding the sauerkraut. Do not skip the sour cream, and pass a shaker of cayenne pepper or similar to add heat to taste.
