How to Make And All Because He Does Not Like Sauerkraut 1

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Drain 1 (16-ounce) jar of sauerkraut, reserving the liquid. Replace the sauerkraut liquid with 1 cup of pineapple juice from a can.
  3. Gently simmer the sauerkraut and pineapple juice in a saucepan over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. In a separate pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Sauté 1 medium onion and 2 cloves garlic until softened. Stir in 1 tablespoon curry powder and 1-2 teaspoons sambal oelek (optional). Cook for 1-2 minutes.
  5. Drain any excess liquid from the simmered sauerkraut (if any). Combine the sauerkraut mixture with the onion mixture, 1 cup of drained pineapple chunks, and 1 medium bell pepper (chopped).
  6. Spread 4 ounces of cream cheese on thin slices of 8 ounces of deli ham. Place a spoonful of the sauerkraut mixture onto each ham slice and roll up tightly.
  7. Grease a baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches) with 1 tablespoon of butter. Place any remaining sauerkraut mixture in the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheese over the sauerkraut.
  8. Arrange the ham rolls on top of the sauerkraut and cheese.
  9. Combine the remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese with 1/2 cup breadcrumbs. Sprinkle this mixture over the ham rolls. Dot with a few small pieces of butter.
  10. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the ham rolls are heated through and the topping is golden brown. Serve immediately with mashed potatoes.
