A traditional Dutch winter dish is stamppot. it is always a combination
of mashed potatoes with one or two vegetables mixed into it. Typically
served with fried speck and sausage. The most classic veg that are added
are kale, or sauerkraut, or apples (ok, a fruit) or a mixture of onions
and carrots.

Today, I made a version of a leftover mash of potatoes and celeriac root
(70-30 ratio, total weight about 600 grams). I added 500 g of sauerkraut
(rinsed and then cooked for about 10 minutes), a sauteed onion. Served
it with slices of fried bacon on top. It tasted much better than I had
hoped. The mild sweetness of the celeriac perfectly balanced the sauerkraut.

I had considered adding dates and/or peppadews, but since it tasted so
good, I left the stamppot as it was.
