Bratwurst and cranberry sauerkraut

Rinse the sauerkraut under cold running water and let it drain. Heat the oil in a thick-bottomed pan and fry the cumin seeds for 1 min on medium heat.

Ris the leaves of thyme from the twigs. Add the sauerkraut, thyme and cranberry compote to the pan and simmer for 12 minutes on low heat. Change regularly.

In the meantime, heat the remaining oil in a frying pan and fry the sausages in 13 minutes on medium heat around brown and done.

In the meantime, heat the mashed potatoes in the microwave according to the instructions on the package. Cut the chives finely and scoop through the puree.

Serve with the bratwurst and cranberry sauerkraut and the rest of the cranberry compote.
