Instructions

Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season the pork with salt and black pepper, then sear each side for about 4-5 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, sauté diced onion and minced garlic until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in rinsed sauerkraut, chicken soup base, brown sugar, apple slices, water, salt, and pepper.
Return the seared pork to the pot, bring to a simmer, cover with a lid, and reduce heat to low.
Cook gently for about 90 minutes until the pork is tender; stir occasionally.
While the pork cooks, boil water in another pot to cook egg noodles; drain when ready.
Once the pork is tender, remove it from the pot to rest before slicing. Serve over cooked noodles and top with fresh parsley.
