Wash and cut up potatoes. I cut them up really small (like 1/2 inch cubes), they cook faster this way. Fry the potatoes by putting them into a pot with oil, putting it on medium high, and adding a lid. This softens them without browning. When they get soft, remove the lid and crank up the heat. Stir occasionally until they are golden brown.
Cut up kielbasa. I slice the meat through the middle and then in half again so it's roughly the same size chunks as the potatoes. Dump the meat, onions, mustard, and brown sugar into non stick skillet. Put it on medium heat until the brown sugar is melted and bubbly, then turn up heat and cook till browned.
Drain oil off of potatoes and combine meat and potatoes.
I serve this with beans and cornbread, and it feeds four people for less than 5 dollars.

This is an easy weeknight meal that my whole family likes. It is inspired by a recipe of my mother's.By Robin from Washington, IA

My parents and I really enjoy kielbasa. We have very limited ways of preparing it. Normally we fry or grill them and eat them on hotdog buns or bagels. We would really appreciate any casserole dishes or other ways to prepare this meat. We looked in a couple cook books with no success what so ever.
Thank you.

Kielbasa and Cabbage
1/3 cup chopped onion (one small)
1 Tbsp. butter or margarine
1 small head green or red cabbage, cut into 12 wedges
3/4 cup apple juice
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar or cider vinegar
12 ounces fully cooked kielbasa, cut into 8 pieces
2 medium cooking apples, cored and sliced.
In 12 in skillet cook onion in hot margarine or butter till tender. Add cabbage wedges. Stir together apple juice, brown sugar, and vinegar. Pour over cabbage in skillet. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat Simmer, covered, for 15 minutes.
Add kielbasa and apples. Return to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer covered, for 10 minutes or till sausage is hot and apple is crisp tender. Serve with slotted spoon. Makes 4 servings.
Note: I have used apple cider instead of apple juice and I have used smoked kielbasa also.
My son gave me some kielbasa, the Polish sausage. I would like some recipes for its use, but not too heavy. Does one boil it, saute it, broil it? Help!
By Raeb2203/30/2011I saute in skillet using water instead of oil ( to reduce the fat) for 2 minutes then drain on paper towels. I then use hash brown potatoes and add a side of vegetables and make it a meal.
I am looking for a bean recipe. If I were to name this recipe, I would call it ranch style beans, but not like the canned ranch style beans. These are slow cooked and have some sort of kielbasa sausage in them. (No other chunks that I could tell... haha) Wonderful flavor. I don't like most of the canned baked bean and related beans but we had these at a catored event recently and they were marvelous! Does anyone have anything similar?
