POLISH STEW

POLISH PYROGY

UKRAINIAN GOLUBTZI (cabbage rolls)

FOOD, COOKING TIPS

POLISH STEW

8 slices of bacon, finely chopped

1 pound boneless, lean pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch chunks

3 cloves garlic, finely chopped, or 1-teaspoon garlic powder

3 onions, quartered

½ pound fresh mushrooms, sliced

1 cup canned beef broth

2 Tablespoons sugar

2 bay leaves

2 cups canned sauerkraut rinsed under water and drained well

2 medium apples, cored and sliced

2 cups Italian-style whole tomatoes with juice

1 cup cooked ham, diced

1½ cups cooked Polish sausage, coarsely sliced

Fry bacon pieces in large saucepan over high heat for about 3 minutes.

Carefully drain off some of the fat, leaving just enough to coat the bottom of the pot.

Add pork, garlic, onions, and mushrooms, and, stirring constantly, fry until meat is browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.

Reduce heat to medium. Add beef broth, sugar, bay leaves, drained sauerkraut, apples, and tomatoes with juice. Bring the mixture to a boil, increasing heat if necessary.

Reduce heat, cover, and simmer stew for about 1½ hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Add cooked ham and sausage, and stir.

Cover and continue to simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes more to blend flavours.

Remove bay leaves and discard before serving.

Serves 8 to 10.  Read more...
