Chop one onion and heat a little olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Sauté the chopped onion until it becomes clear.

Add beef sausages to the skillet, cut at a slant for a nice shape, and warm them up with the onions.

Drain the sauerkraut in a colander and shake it dry.

Chop two green apples, avoiding the core and seeds.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained sauerkraut, sausage and onion mixture, chopped apples, brown sugar, coriander seeds, and water.

Mix everything together thoroughly in the bowl.

Transfer the mixture into a casserole dish, spreading it evenly.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the casserole for one hour, checking it periodically.
