water to cover. 3. Heat the lard in a large, heavy casserole and add
1 1/2 cups of the onions and 1 tsp garlic. Cook, stirring, until
wilted. Add the caraway seeds and cook briefly. Stir in the apples.
4. Rinse and drain the sauerkraut. Squeeze it to extract excess
liquid. Add the juniper berries and sauerkraut to the casserole. 5.
Place the pork butt in the center of the sauerkraut. Add the bay
leaf, cider and broth. Cover closely. Bring to a boil and cook 15
min. 6. Meanwhile, combine the bread and milk in a mixing bowl and
blend with the fingers. Add the ground pork, remaining onion and
garlic, the parsley, cumin and coriander. Blend well. Shape into 6-8
equal balls. 7. Arrange the meatballs and kielbasa over the
sauerkraut. Add the drained potatoes. Cover again and continue
cooking 20 min. 8. Remove the bay leaf. Slice the pork butt and
kielbasa and serve with the sauerkraut, meatballs and potatoes.

Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weightMake sure that you drink enough fluids. Sometimes at some stage in a hectic work day, you feel you need food when in truth you may need a refreshing glass of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are somewhat similar, but one of them ends in weight increase and the other one leads to no damage.
Some reduced carb diet guidlines:
* Use soy flour or baking mix. When you need to use flour for baked goods, substitute soy flour or a baking mix such as Atkins bake mix. In most cases, you may convert your most popular recipes that use conventional wheat flour to use these lowcarb alternatives.
* Eat regular meals Most reduced carb recipes are, errmm.., low in carbs. Your body must have energy, and carbohydrates are a fast acting energy source. A reduced carbohydrate diet needs great care in monitoring you energy levels, as the energy provided by non-carbohydrate sources is far slower to act.
