Cook Kielbasa

Cook Kielbasa


"Kielbasa" is the Polish word for "sausage." There are many different ways to cook kielbasa, all of which are easy and most of which don't take very long. Kielbasa is seasoned and smoked, which means you can cook it any number of ways or eat it uncooked.


Instructions


Skillet-Fried Potatoes and Kielbasa


1. Peel and slice four large potatoes and one onion.


2. Cut the kielbasa into slices until you have 1 cup.


3. Add the vegetable oil to a large skillet and heat it at medium-high heat. Let the oil get hot, then turn the burner to medium.


4. Put the sliced potatoes and kielbasa in the skillet. Cover it with a lid and let it cook, turning the items often so the potatoes, onion and kielbasa don't burn..


5. Take food out of the skillet when the potatoes and onion are tender and somewhat crispy around the edges.


Spaghetti Kielbasa


6. Fill a large pot halfway with water. Put it on the stove and turn the burner on high heat. Covering the pan will make the water boil faster.


7. Add 1 tbsp. of vegetable oil and wait for the water to boil. Add two handfuls of spaghetti noodles to the boiling water and cook until the noodles are tender.








8. Chop one onion, one tomato and 1 cup of kielbasa into small chunks. You also can use bell pepper.


9. Open a jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce and pour it into a large sauce pan. Add the onion, kielbasa and tomato to the sauce. If you like a sweeter spaghetti sauce, add 1 tbsp. of sugar. Let it cook on medium heat until the sauce is hot.


10. Drain the water off the noodles and add the sauce to the noodles. Stir to mix the sauce and noodles together.


Sauerkraut and Kielbasa


11. Cut up the kielbasa into 2 cups of finger-length pieces. Put them in a large skillet.


12. Open a jar or can of sauerkraut and add it to the skillet with the kielbasa.


13. Cook the mixture on medium heat until both the sauerkraut and kielbasa are hot.
