For a vegetarian option, substitute the ham and corned beef with finely chopped mushrooms or cooked lentils. Ensure the sauerkraut is well-drained to prevent soggy balls. Refrigerating the mixture overnight can enhance the flavor and make it easier to handle. Serve with a creamy Dijon mustard or a spicy aioli for dipping.
