2 If you want to try traditional Polish cuisine, stop counting your calories. Typical meals are very hearty and often contain a lot of meat. Just sampling them is enough to discover that they are really delicious and worth putting on a few ounces. The most recommendable dishes are: bigos, kotlet schabowy, pierogi and gołąbki (see below). Poles boast that their two basic products are bread and sausages. The most typical ingredients used in Polish cuisine are sauerkraut, beetroot, cucumbers (gherkins), sour cream, kohlrabi, mushrooms, sausages and smoked sausage. A meal owes it taste to the herbs and spices used; such as marjoram, dill, caraway seeds, parsley, or pepper. The most popular desserts are cakes and pastries. A shot of vodka is an appropriate addition to festive meals and help you to digest the food.

9 Polish Kotlet Schabowy (Pork Cutlet)

10 You will need: Good quality pork 1 egg Flour Breadcrumbs Salt and pepper Margarine or lard This dish extremely popular in Poland and very simple to prepare. It’s rather impossible to spoil it, provided that the pork you get for it is OK. 1. Get some good quality pork. Cut it in several pieces (or simply buy it in pieces) and beat each one with a mallet so it’s more or less oval in shape. A single chop should not be too thin. You may cover the meat with foil to prevent its specks from flying around. 2. Rub salt and pepper into each chop on both sides. 3. Dip the chops in flour, raw stirred egg and breadcrumbs. 4. Heat up some oil on the pan (use margarine or lard) and place the chops in the pan. 5. Fry until they become golden.

11 Potato Pancakes

12 You will need: 4 lb. potatoes 1-2 oz. onion 1/2 glass milk 1 oz. flour 1-2 eggs Salt, pepper (optional) Vegetable oil Grate peeled potatoes and onions and mix them together. Pour in boiling milk while stirring. Add eggs, flour and salt. Add pepper if you like. Mix it all up. Don’t wait too long with the rest of the preparation because the fresher the mixture the better the cakes. Heat the oil in a pan. Then put on the pan portions of the prepared mass. Each portion will become a separate pancake. It should not be too thick. The shape will be more or less oval. Fry the pancakes, flipping them every now and then until they get brownish and crispy on both sides. They should be served directly after being prepared when they’re still

13 Polish Rosol (Polish Broth)

Add vegetables, salt and pepper, and mushrooms if you want. Boil the whole thing. When it boils, decrease the heat to about minimum. Skim and remove the scum. Leave the soup simmering lightly until the meat gets tender. It takes about 1-1,5 hour on average. Thanks to this procedure the broth will be clear. After the soup is ready, add chopped parsley and noodles. You may keep some small pieces of meat in it if you want, but usually all meat is removed
