STEEMIT CULINARY CHALLENGE #36: Pork Hock with Sauerkraut and Potatoes

FOOD FIT FOR A GERMAN!

When I thought of food fit for a German, many different dishes came to my mind.

I have decided to make this dish: Eisbein mit Sauerkraut und Kartoffeln.
It's tasty and the amount of meat can't leave any man feeling hungry!

Personally, I think this food is fit not only for a German but for any hungry man.

Ingredients;
Excuse the date (I was so excited to cook for this challenge that I got messed up with the months :P, I only noticed the mistake after everything started boiling...)

Pork Hock (I used smoked one)
Sauerkraut
Potatoes
Water to cover the sauerkraut
Spices: salt, black pepper, bay leaves, whole allspice, cumin, marjoram

I don't have a guideline about the proportions.
I use a large pot and in addition to the hock I add as much sauerkraut I can fit in the pot.
Also add all spices.

Bring this to a boil and continue cooking for another hour or so until the meat becomes soft and tender.
Taste it. If needed, add more seasoning.

Peel the potatoes, add a 1tsp of salt and cook them until soft. Drain. Add a bit of dill for garnish.

Now, your dish should be ready!!!

I hope you like my cooking :)

Enjoy!!!
