Grandma Lizzy

I love polish food, my grandmother was Ukrainian. Anything containing potatoes, onions and cabbage is a tasty treat. However I just threw this out the door! And I would not recommend it for the novice cook. I have been cooking for about 50 years and can rescue most anything but I finally just dumped this. There is nothing in the ingredients that should have been difficult to work with. But I do believe that hand shredding the potatoes caused them to just be too watery. I dryed them several times but it would have taken 5 lbs of flour to get any kind of workable dough to fill. They might work as drop dumplings? I tryed frying them like potatoe pancakes, put onions and cabbage in the skillet with a few...all of these things should have worked but it just didn't. They tasted terrible. and I didn't think that was possible. So maybe it was just me having a DAY. But my advise is to try something else. This recipe needs too much tweeking, your time is better spent on something else like perogie.

This is a good basic recipe for quick strudel. My family enjoyed it and it didn't take the whole day to make! I made the recipe as written but used caramel ice cream syrup instead of the butterscotch chips. Gives it a richer flavor and more even sweetness it also doesn't have lumps of chips if you serve it cold.

Very good, nice texture. I made exactly as written.

for those who can't eat nuts, crush 3/4 to 1 cup of grape nuts flakes and substitute for the nuts. gives a nice flavor without the pain in the tummy.

Honey mustard dressing and butter will work with this too. Add a little green onion or chives if you want to dress it up! Good recipe

Great recipe. I have been making it for 40+ years. If I am really in a hurry I just cut up some ham and throw it into the sauce. You have a whole meal in a dish. It is whole food..no additives and very tasty. The onion really gives it nice flavor. Pepper is a good addition too. It is pretty much fool proof.
