  1. Cook the sausages In a large fry pan over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil. Add the sausages, cut side down, and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the sausages over, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the apple and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apple is softened and the onion is golden, about 3 minutes.

  2. Simmer the sauerkraut and meat Stir in the sauerkraut, bay leaf, caraway seeds, juniper berries and wine. Add the pork chops in a single layer. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook for 10 to 12 minutes to blend the flavors. Remove and discard the bay leaf. Season with pepper. Divide the choucroute among 4 plates and serve immediately. Serves 4.
