Season - Baked sauerkraut with rice and soy slices by Dafina M. - Recipia

Baked sauerkraut with rice and soy slices starts with the soy slices going into the baking dish raw, where they cook under the liquid alongside the sauerkraut and rice. The cabbage softens in the oven, and the rice absorbs the tomato juice and swells among the hydrated slices, until everything is soft and holds together. I serve it with finely sliced green onion. Preparation: 20 minutes. Cooking: 60 minutes. Total time: 80 minutes. Servings: 4. Approximately 420 kcal and 18 g protein per serving.

Ingredients

800 g sauerkraut
200 g rice
3 tablespoons tomato paste or 200 ml tomato juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
50 ml oil
100 g soy slices
600 ml water

Preparation

1. Rinse the rice and cut the sauerkraut into strips. 2. Arrange the cabbage in a baking dish and sprinkle the rice over it. Add the tomato paste or tomato juice, salt, pepper and thyme, then pour in the oil and water. 3. Add the soy slices to the dish raw and submerge them in the liquid so they are covered. 4. Bake at 180°C for 60 minutes, until the rice has swollen and the cabbage and soy slices are cooked through.

Notes

Sauerkraut can vary in saltiness; if it’s too salty, give it a quick rinse and let it drain before cutting it. Soy slices may contain gluten, so check the package if you’re cooking for someone who avoids it. Keep any leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days. I schedule the baking at least an hour and a half before lunch so I don’t have to rush the meal. Serve with a hot pepper on the side. Soy slices that are similar in size hydrate more evenly. If the cabbage is cut thicker, it may need a little extra time to soften.
