Slovakian... kinda Italian...

So we had Solvakian food on Wednesday. It was really good, but my technique needs a bit of improvement :) I made Bryndzove Halusky (potato dumplings with cheese). Yum!


Here's the recipe for ya! (We were going to make apple dessert pancakes, but this more than filled us up!)

Bryndzove Halusky
serves 4

4 potatoes, peeled
Flour (approx 8 T)
Salt
2 eggs

Bryndza (sheep's cheese)
OR
milk
1 pkg. cream cheese
1 pkg. feta cheese

Finely shred the potatoes.
Add egg and flour. Make a dough that's not too touch, but not too watery. Use a bit of water if it's too tough, or add more flour.
Add 1 t. salt
Boil water with 2 t. salt
Use 1/2 t. to drop a litte bit of dough into the boiling water (be sure the water is always boiling).
When halusky are done they will float on the top of the water. Pick them out with a strainer.
If you can't find bryndza (which more than likely you won't be able to), mix the cheeses and milk together over the stove and stir until boiling. Remove from heat.
Fry bacon to crispy, break into little pieces.
Add strained halusky to bacon grease and fry for a moment.
Serve with cheese sauce and bacon on top.

Good, cheap, and REALLY filling!
