I also received a third set of recipes for the Food from Around the World swap from Danie B in Great Britain.
Haluski-Kapusta
1 sm head cabbage
Sprinkle 2 teaspoons salt through cabbage and let stand 10 minutes. Melt 3 tablespoons butter, add 1 chopped onion and simmer for 5 minutes. Add cabbage and cook until tender. While cabbage is cooking, make the "Haluski."
3 lg grated potatoes
2 tsp salt
1 egg, beaten
2 1/2 c flour
Add beaten egg to grated potatoes and mix thoroughly. Add flour and salt which have been sifted together. If dough seems stiff, add a little warm water.
Drop bits of dough into boiling water, do not drop by spoonful, just a little dough at a time, until all dough is used.
Cook until they come to the top, remove from stove, drain and rinse once in lukewarm water. Drain in colander and place in bowl.
Mix cabbage with the "Haluski" and serve.
Cottage cheese, about 3/4 pint, and melted butter can be a variation. Fried sauerkraut instead of the cabbage.
