Today, I bring to you a Polish dish that has been on my favourites list since I was a child. I have grown up watching my grandmother cook it for the family on weekends, usually. I am talking about “Cabbage and Noodles.” The tenderness and sweetness of cabbage combined with the soft egg noodles is a treat to the taste buds. Adding the oomph factor to the dish is the brown sausage incorporated in butter. I can feel the taste in my mouth while I type it. What a comforting meal to have with your friends and family!
Also known as Haluski, this recipe is a perfect way to use the leftover cabbage. It becomes a fantastic side dish with some fries. This dish usually finds its way during Lent. I learnt this dish from my grandmother and have passed it on to many of my friends. I keep receiving calls from friends on weekends where they ask for the secret of the recipe. I feel flattered on getting so many compliments for some amazing dishes that come from my kitchen.
Well, there’s no secret to making your dish look and taste amazing. All you need is giving proper time and making it with love. And today, I would love to share the recipe for this delicious dish with you all. But here are some other amazing recipes that you should definitely try.
1. Stir-Fried Vegan Rice Noodles– Stir-fried vegan rice noodles are a really yummy and healthy option for a special dinner. The other name of this vegan recipe is fried rice vermicelli and Singapore noodles.
2. Instant Cup Ramen– The idea with noodle cups, or pot noodles as the Brits call these, is to pack all your favorite noodle soup components into a jar or other heatproof vessel, but nix the broth. When you’re ready to eat, pour hot water over the top, let things warm up for a few minutes, and lunch is served.
3. Beef and Bean Torta– When talking about Mexican dishes, the first thing that comes to our mind is a bean. Yes, beans are used in almost all of the Mexican cuisines. So, I am going to tell you about dish made of beef, tortilla and beans.
4. Tacos Al Pastor– Unlike tacos filled with beef, chicken, or even fish, Taco Al Pastor are filled with pork. The recipe got its name from the technique adopted by Mexican shepherds to prepare strips of marinated pork on vertical spits.
