Southern German poor man’s food

Fry the dumplings in a large pan in hot fat until lightly golden brown. Add the bacon and cook, turning frequently. Squeeze the sauerkraut to release any excess liquid, then pull it apart and spread it evenly in the pan. Crush the juniper berries a little, if desired, and add them. Now sizzle everything together, turning frequently, until golden brown. Serve with applesauce and beer.
