 MORE IDEAS

  • Sauerkraut is high in fibre and low in calories. It is fermented (like yoghurt) rather than pickled and has a distinctive sour taste. Try the German dish called Heaven and Earth (Sauerkraut, fried onions and mashed potato served with sausage or  bacon and apple sauce)
  • For a classical version swap the mince for hot corned beef
  • Sour cream or grilled vegetables are a good addition
