This recipe works with just about any kind of sausage (except super-spicy ones, which would be overpowering alongside the tangy sauerkraut). It's fine without the wine too: the sausages won't be as shiny, but they'll still taste good.

  • Put potatoes and bay leaves in a medium pot and add just enough water to cover, plus salt to taste. Bring to a boil, then simmer until potatoes are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain potatoes (reserve 1/2 cup of water). Return to pot. Stir in butter, cooking water, and watercress. Set aside, covered.

  • Pour 1 tsp. oil into pan and cook sausages over medium heat, covered, until cooked through, 10 to 20 minutes. Pour in wine and cook, turning sausages, until wine evaporates. Serve with kraut and potatoes.

Chef's Notes

To brown the sausages on their narrower sides, it helps to stack them against one another in the pan--that way they don't fall over. You can easily double this recipe.
