Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high until foaming, ~60 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Slice kielbasa on the bias into 0.5-inch-thick rounds. Sear in batches without moving until edges brown, ~2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

  3. Step 3

    In the same skillet, add remaining 1 tbsp butter and mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender, ~4 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Add sliced onion to the pan and cook, stirring often, until edges crisp and brown, ~3 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Warm sauerkraut and spaetzle in the skillet alongside the mushrooms and onion, stirring occasionally, until heated through, ~2 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Divide mashed potatoes among plates. Top with sauerkraut, spaetzle with mushrooms and onions, and kielbasa. Serve with mustard on the side.
