Easy Baked Pork Ribs, Sauerkraut and Potatoes

Easy Baked Pork Ribs, Sauerkraut and Potatoes

This is the perfect meal for the winter season. Spareribs and sauerkraut is a classic combination, but the potatoes are a pleasant and balancing addition to the recipe. Basically, you have it all ready, the main meal and the garnish in one go and with minimal effort - you put everything raw in the oven and you just have to wait.

What I really like is simple dishes that mainly require little time in the kitchen, provided they are also tasty. This recipe was exactly like that, delicious, simple and quick. I definitely recommend it. If you can't find good ribs, you can use pork neck, or any other cut you prefer, as long as it's a bit fatty.

Ingredients

Pork ribs
1.5 kg
can be replaced with neck or any other slightly fattier cut you like
Sauerkraut
1.5 kg
already chopped or whole
Potatoes
1 kg
Vegetable oil
100 ml
Ground black pepper
0.5 tsp
Salt
1 tbsp
Sweet paprika
1 tbsp
Garlic powder
1 tbsp

Step by step

1

Arrange the chopped sauerkraut in an even layer in a baking dish, press lightly with your palms.

If you have whole cabbage, rinse it a little to wash off the extra salt and sourness. Let drain properly, then finely chop with a knife.

2

Peel and wash the potatoes, cut into medium-sized cubes and place in a larger bowl.

3

Place the pork ribs, cut into individual bones, on top of the potatoes.

The biggest challenge in this recipe is finding meatier pork ribs. I discovered them in the meat department at Metro, a supermarket.

4

With your hands, rub well the spareribs and the potatoes with oil and all the spices.

5

Arrange the potatoes and ribs over the sauerkraut layer, without mixing or pressing them into the cabbage.

6

Cut an oven bag and place it over the dish to cover it completely or use aluminum foil, or both.

Place in the preheated oven to 200 degrees C for one hour and a half.

7

After this time, remove the cover. The ribs may have browned a little on top, so turn them over with a fork in order to brown on the other side as well.

Now leave the dish in the oven for another half hour, to brown even more.

8

And that's it. After this time, remove from the oven and serve some ribs with potatoes next to the cooked sauerkraut.

Enjoy!
