Polish food thread?
Poland cannot into space, but Poland can into kitchen.
I can give you a bunch of recipes, as long as you tell me what would you like me to translate and post. Meanwhile, I'll keep posting some of my stuff.
First up - a traditional Polish dish, Russian pierogi's! You're gonna have to convert the grams and mililiters though, I guess.
Dough, my grandma's recipe:
500g flour
330 ml water
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 tablespoon oil
Mix the flour with salt. Make an indent in it, pour in the water and yolk. Mix it with a fork till it all comes together, then start working the dough. Do it for about 2-3 minutes. Then pour the oil into your palm and work the dough for another 1-2 minutes. It should be smooth. Leave it for at least 10-15 minutes, cover with a cloth.
Stuffing:
1kg of potatoes
250g quark, full fat
2 onions
Salt, black pepper, sweet red pepper (the spice)
Boil potatoes till they're soft, mash them while they're still hot. Wait till they get cold, mix in the quark and onions. You should dice the onions and fry them for a bit on a pan with a bit of oil. Then add about 1 tsp of the peppers. And salt to taste. It should be quite strong in taste.
Then roll out the dough, cut circles with the biggest glass you have. Put about a tablespoon of the stuffing inside, fold in half, form the pierogies.
Put them in boiling, salted water for about 6-10 minutes. When they rise to the top give them another 2-3 minutes and you're good to go!
Tastes best with extra onion and bacon bits.
