ORIGINAL LAUER-KRAUT BURGERS

Steps:

• For the burger filling: Brown the ground chuck in a large skillet over medium heat, crumbling the meat pretty finely as it browns. Add the chopped onions and 1 teaspoon of the pepper. Cook the onion down a little, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chopped cabbage, sauerkraut, remaining 1 teaspoon pepper and 1 teaspoon salt. Let the mixture cook, 10 to 15 minutes, depending on how done you like the cabbage. Strain and let cool.
• For the dough: Put the yeast and sugar in a 4-cup measuring cup and add warm water to the 1-cup mark. Stir together and let sit until the yeast rises to twice its original size. Put the powdered milk in another 4-cup measuring cup and add water to the 2-cup mark. Stir together. In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, salt and shortening. Cut the shortening into the flour by hand. Next, make a well in the flour and add the eggs, yeast mixture and the powdered milk mixture to the flour. Work it all together until the dough comes away from the bowl (you may need a touch more flour or water). Oil the dough slightly on each side, cover and let rise, for 10 minutes. Pinch and let rise another 15 minutes.
• To assemble the Lauer-Kraut burgers: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Lightly flour a work surface and put the dough on the flour. Begin to roll the dough as close to a rectangle as you can, roughly 24-by-30 inches. Once the dough is rolled out, cut the dough into squares, roughly 6-by-6 inches. Take a square of dough and roll it out a little bigger, roughly 8-by-8 inches. Turn the re-rolled square over and add a full cup of filling mixture into the middle of the dough. Bring the opposite corners of the square together, and then bring the other 2 opposite corners together. You should have all 4 corners drawn together. Pinch down the 4 seams of the dough. Once you pinch all the seams, push down slightly on the kraut burger. This will release extra air and help you find any place you missed sealing the kraut burger. Turn the sealed pocket over and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes.

KRAUTBURGERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the milk, sugar, shortening and salt. Stir in enough flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. , Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. , Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. In a large saucepan, cook cabbage and onion until tender. , In a large bowl, combine the meat, cabbage mixture, salt, pepper and seasoned salt. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in half. Roll each into a 16-in. square. Cut into 4-in. squares. Place 1/4 cup filling in the center of each. Bring corners over filling; pinch to seal. , Place, seam side down, on greased baking sheets. Do not let rise. Bake at 425° for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°; bake 15-20 minutes longer or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks. Brush with melted butter. Serve warm. Refrigerate leftovers.

CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE BURGER PATTIES

Steps:

• Put the Cruskits in the food processor and grind to a fine breadcrumb consistency. Tip the crumbs into a bowl.
• Put the rest of the ingredients except the chicken into the food processor and pulse until finely chopped.
• Note: Resist the temptation to do the Cruskits and vegetables together. You'll end up with a gluggy mess that is difficult to get out of the food processor.
• Add the chicken and vegetables to the crumbs and mix together quickly. The crumbs absorb the liquid and become sticky so the quicker you can work, the easier it is to combine everything evenly. I get into it with my hands.
• Divide into 4 large patties or 8 small ones, about 1.5 to 2 cm thick. Grill for 7 minutes on each side.
• Serve in a pita bread with lettuce and tomato or serve as a main dish with vegetables.
• These patties can also be baked in a hot oven. I also make them into meatballs and bake them then freeze them. They can be added to stock and bok choy for a very quick meal.

KRAUTBURGER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place ground beef in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain fat. Stir in cabbage and onion soup mix; cook 5 minutes longer, or until lightly browned. Set aside.
• Roll one loaf of bread dough into a 16x8 inch rectangle, then cut into eight 4 inch squares. Spoon cabbage mixture into center of each square, top with 1 small slice cheese and bring up diagonal points, pinching edges closed. Place krautburgers on a cookie sheet coated with cooking spray, and let rise for about 10 minutes.
• Bake for 20 minutes, or until brown. Brush tops of warm rolls with margarine. Repeat process with second loaf of bread and remaining cabbage mixture and cheese.

HERBED BURGER PATTIES

Steps:

• Freeze the butter.
• Separate out the beef in a mixing bowl so it's grainy.
• Combine all herbs in a second bowl.
• Grate the frozen butter into the beef.
• Mix in herbs, and combine all ingredients loosely.
• Shape mixture into 4 large round pattiess 1cm thick. Make a depression in the centre of each.
• Grill patties 7-10 minutes (depending on how well-done you like your burger!).

SAUERKRAUT WITH CHICKEN LEG QUARTERS AND SAUSAGES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cover sauerkraut with water. Heat a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add to pot, skin side down, and cook, turning until browned on all sides, 8 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate. Add kielbasa, cut side down, to pot and cook until browned on both sides, about 4 minutes, flipping once. Add carrots, onion, and 1/2 cup water; cook, stirring and scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon, until water is evaporated and onion is softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add wine and bring to a boil.
• Drain sauerkraut, pressing to remove as much liquid as possible. Add to pot, along with sugar, bay leaves, and caraway seeds; season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
• Place chicken, skin side up, on top of sauerkraut and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat, partially cover pot, and rapidly simmer until chicken is cooked through and liquid is slightly reduced, about 20 minutes. Remove bay leaves before serving.
