    Looks good! Are those potato pancakes like made from grated potato or mashed potato?

      I had this at a polish restaurant one time. They called it the hunter’s stew - bigos. That dish apparently has a million variations that look different than this, though. I’m not polish so I could be completely wrong here.

      !WetBeardHairs is spot on with it being a traditional Polish dish. I’m very unsure of the recipe, but I’ll happily postlude the location of the restaurant (Poland) if it doesn’t violate any rules and if it does and you are still interested message me and I’ll tell you there! (:

      (Apparently I do not know how to tag a user in a post like I thought I did haha please feel free to point me in the right direction)😅

    Looks like some amazing comfort food. :o

    The one thing I’d swap in would be Greek yogurt for the sour cream. The taste is reasonably similar, the calories about 1/5th or less, and it’s good for gut health.

    EDIT: Well, based on the downvotes, looks like a lot of people aren’t happy with my diet!

      …in what world does Greek yoghurt taste like sour cream? Completely different taste, texture, and purpose

        I’m sure there’s differences between various region & brands, but from my local grocery (Midwest US), brands I’ve tried (“Chobani” Greek yogurt, and… can’t remember the last sour cream I tried, sorry) do indeed taste similar in taste and texture.

        Yeah, for sure they’re not *exactly* the same, but just like training oneself out of using too much sugar, salt, trans fat, etc, I find that one can shift one’s palate over time. Indeed, when I eat out at a Mexican place or whatnot, the sour cream tastes oddly ‘heavy’ to me, which makes me glad, since part of why I switched over was to improve my diet.

        To me it does, yogurt tastes different that I can’t enjoy it by itself anymore
