Preparation procedure

Preparing the cabbage and meat: Lightly squeeze the sauerkraut and chop finely. In a bowl mix the minced meat, finely chopped onion, garlic, pepper and cabbage. Mix thoroughly.
Making the batter: Add to the bowl with the meat mixture the flour, baking powder, grated potatoes, milk, eggs and the remaining spices. Mix thoroughly to form a thicker batter similar to that for potato pancakes.
Baking: Prepare a baking tray, line it with parchment paper and spread the batter evenly. If you like, you can sprinkle the surface with bacon cubes for an even more pronounced flavor.
Into the oven: Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C for about 35–40 minutes, until the surface turns golden brown.
Serving: After baking let the tray cool slightly, cut into portions and serve on its own or with your favorite dip.
