Making My Own Instant Pot Sauerkraut Meatballs
Making Instant Pot Sauerkraut Meatballs!!
Today I decided to make up my own Instant Pot sauerkraut meatballs recipe using a few recipes that I knew. I started with my Mom’s recipe for pressure cooked Lebanese stuffed Grape Leaves and her stovetop version of sauerkraut meatballs.
I never made this before this time and BAM!! It wooooorked and was it ever tasty!!
Recipe;
Adam’s Instant Pot Sauerkraut Meatballs
454 g (1lb) Ground beef
1 jar sauerkraut (for layers)
1 medium onion, fine chopped (for meatballs)
2-3 tomatoes, diced (for layers)
1-2 tomatoes, diced (for meatballs)
4 cloves of garlic, diced
1 cup of rice
3/4 cup of Panko
1 1/2 tbsp of ketchup
1 tbsp of basil
1 tbsp of garlic powder
2 tsp season salt
1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
2 tsp lemon juice
Sour cream for serving (optional)
1. Mix everything (except the sauerkraut and extra diced tomatoes) in a bowl.
2. Form 2-3" meatballs.
3. Add about 1" of water and then add another 1/2” of the juice from the sauerkraut in the bottom of the instant pot (Total of 1.5” of liquid). Place your inner pot on a trivet (or line the trivet to keep contents from falling through).
4. Drain the sauerkraut but keep some of the liquid for after. Then add a layer of the sauerkraut and diced tomatoes to the bottom of the inner pot.
5. Add a layer of meatballs spaced apart from each other.
6. Add a layer of sauerkraut and diced tomatoes. Then add another layer of meatballs. Then another layer of sauerkraut and diced tomatoes. Be careful not to over fill the pot.
7. Sprinkle additional basil, ground black pepper, garlic powder and some salt on top.
8. Evenly pour 1/2 cup or so of the liquid that was saved from the sauerkraut over the top.
9. Cook on high pressure for 27 minutes
10. Natural release 15 minutes then release any remaining pressure.
11. Heat temp meatballs to 160°F
12. Serve topped with a dollop of sour cream (optional)

Queen Ming Ming The Merciless Who Became Merciful can dance if she wants to and it is TOO CUTE!! She does it all the time. She used to hide and be a biter but then suddenly she became merciful after her brother died. She became an awesome kitty. Maynana and Ming Ming (for short) have become good friends in their old age but still think there's only one queen and that's Momma. The music is a fre...

That Time We Made Sheared Beaver Covered Stairs For The Dog

This video is about us making a set of stairs for our aging dog. She needed new ones and we had lots of scrap wood from some other projects. We decided that we would cover it with repurposed scraps of sheared beaver and persian lamb that were donated from Grandma’s art shop. The fur has been repurposed during many different projects, to try to honor the animals who lost their lives to fashion a...

A Walk To Remember With Maynana

A peaceful walk around a gorgeous property in Southeastern Ontario with my little sweet friend Maynana. She loves to walk leash-free and feel the true freedom of country living while I enjoy some social solitude. There are many things to see. Today among other things, we look at some grape vine leaves and sumac that is growing around the property.

    I got an 17 year-old Jack Russell X that I've had since she was 8 weeks and she does exactly the same thing after she eats she goes around scavenging for more food even though she's a little fatty already lol goes over to the food bowl and cries and looks at me and then comes over to me & whacks me lol. That's a cool clip & how anyone could not love dogs is beyond my comprehension. They are so adorable and loyal with their little personalities. Cheers from Australia 😂🤟🏻

      Thank you. That is so funny and cute that yours acts similarly! They sure are smart. Ours is a jack russel/pug and shes 14. She acts like a puppy and then has rough days but she’s happy. She likes her heating pad.

      It was! A nice size, big but still delicious. We used it to make Kousa, a Lebanese dish. We used ground turkey and it was good. That will be happening again when the next one is ready 😁

    I use to find a lot of snakes at the garage! I also laughed when that tree branch hit you in the face mid sentence hahaha What do you use sumac for?

    • @thoughtwedtryit4181
      @thoughtwedtryit4181 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Best place for the snakes usually! Lol I laughed at that part too, It’s real and funny. I thought that since most people take that type of stuff out, I’d leave it in. It was funny when it happened too. As for the sumac; it’s used in Lebanese and other arabic style cooking. The variety found in Ontario is a bit less flavourful and has a slightly different texture but it’s still really good. It also makes a refreshing hot or cold tea. It has a citrus element to the flavour but is also like black tea. I prefer the middle eastern variety for cooking but this one works too. It is a bit of a process to prepare it after harvest before you can use it but it keeps for a long time. After it was cleaned and dried, I froze some and vacuum sealed it and two years later it is still like the day I packed it. I put the rest in an airtight sealed container and it lasted over 2 years too. It is good stuff!
