Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Kielbasa

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the Polish kielbasa and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Onions

    Add the sliced sweet onions to the skillet and cook until they are soft and translucent, about 4-5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Sauerkraut

    Stir in the sauerkraut and cook until heated through, about 3-4 minutes. Season with black pepper and paprika.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the Kaiser rolls in half and spread yellow mustard on the bottom half. Layer the kielbasa mixture evenly on top of the mustard.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Top with the other half of the roll and serve immediately while hot.
