Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 links Bratwurst sausages
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 2 cups Sauerkraut
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds (optional)
- 4 large Flour tortillas
- 4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bratwurst sausages and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Thinly slice the yellow onion. Using the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the sliced onion. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and caramelized.
Add the sauerkraut, brown sugar, caraway seeds (if using), salt, and black pepper to the skillet with the onions. Stir well to combine and cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove from heat.
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for about 10-20 seconds, just until pliable.
Spread 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard across the center of each tortilla.
Slice the cooked bratwurst in half lengthwise (if desired, for easier wrapping) and place one link (or two halves) onto each tortilla.
Top the bratwurst with a generous portion of the onion sauerkraut mixture.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to encase the filling.
Serve the bratwurst wraps warm, with extra mustard on the side if desired.
