This awesome recipe reflects my German roots. In the cooler months, nothing is as comforting as a hearty hash. Serve this versatile recipe as a side dish at a holiday meal or as a brunch entree over cheddar grits or topped with a fried egg. —Crystal Schlueter, Babbitt, Minnesota

This is delicious. I followed the recipe exactly,except: I doubled the recipe, and as I wanted this to be a main dish, added about 2.5 cups of cooked rice. A substantial meal and oh so good. Maybe rice isn't Bavarian, but it sure was good. So good that I'm making it again tomorrow because of so many requests.

This is great for a German flavor twist to Brussels sprouts and for a great one pan stove top dinner. I used brats boiled in beer first. I also used a whole onion, one bag of Brussels sprouts trimmed and sliced thin, and used red wine vinegar in place of cider since I was out of cider vinegar. I also added sauerkraut and bacon bits to mine and sautéed along with the rest. I probably did about 2.5 times the mustard and vinegar but left the brown sugar, walnuts and caraway seeds the same as listed in the recipe. I also sautéed mine on high heat until very well browned. Instead of canola oil, I used some leftover bacon grease. Overall, the flavors were great together.

Quite tasty! Only substitution was 1# of polska kielbasa.

Tasty, classic German flavors. The walnuts provide a nice crunch and there is a flavor difference using the Brussels sprouts versus the easier option of bagged, shredded cabbage. I used fully cooked turkey kielbasa, went heavy on the Brussels sprouts, omitted the caraway seeds (not a fan), and doubled the sauce. The suggested four servings are for this to be a side dish...no way as an entree unless you have very light eaters.

Worked great. I used a turkey sausage instead. Used balsamic vinegar since I didn’t have any cider vinegar at the time.
