Recipe video above. Pierogi Ruskie's are Polish dumplings filled with cheesy, creamy mashed potatoes served with an onion butter sauce. They are even more delicious than they sound! Traditionally made with quark which is an European fresh cheese which isn't easily found in Australia, so I've used cheddar because I want this recipe to be as accessible as possible to many people to experience the greatness that is Pieorgis!!!

Every time we go to Poland Justin discovers something new to eat which becomes his absolute favorite for a while! Last time we went there I introduced him to the most popular Polish street food/fast food called zapiekanka. I think it's the oldest, simplest, cheapest, and most delicious street food in Poland consisting mostly of a bread, mushroom and cheese. You should see Justin's face when he first tried it, it was love from first bite. I was a little bit concerned that we might be broke after all the zapiekankas he was buying (thank God they are cheap), he had at least one or two a day, so after 3 weeks you do the math! We could go to the best and most sophisticated restaurant in Krakow and he would still save some space so he can have zapiekanka afterward. When people ask him how was our trip to Poland, all he could talk about is how awesome zapiekankas are. So I decided to make some for dinner to make my man happy, and I never saw him that excited about dinner before. Nowadays people put all sorts of different things on it, but it's unnecessary because you can't beat the original one, which is absolutely the best. All you need is: baguette or long buns 1 chopped onion mushrooms shredded mozzarella cheese chives ketchup salt and pepper Saute onions and mushrooms together for about 5 minutes, just enough to release the "juices" and season them with salt and pepper. Cut the bread into half horizontally, put mushrooms on the top, and then sprinkle with shredded cheese. Bake for about 10 min at 400F until the cheese is melted and bread is crisp. To serve, top it with ketchup and chopped chives and you got yourself a signature dish of Polish streets. You should definitely try this version. Don't skip anything, even if you are not crazy about ketchup or chives, you should still try it because that's what makes the dish authentic. People like to also use ham, salami, chicken, or corn, but for me there is nothing better than the original and the simplest version. It just brings back memories, not only for me, but now also for Justin. And who said you can't enjoy some street food with a glass of nice wine? Don't they look scrumptious? If you ever go to Poland, don't forget to check them out for yourself, you won't be disappointed! Smacznego. Magda.
