Gołąbki

Great surprise given to us by a friend, Goląbki for dinner.  Gołabki  are a form of cabbage rolls. They are a traditional Polish dish made from lightly boiled cabbage leaves, which are wrapped in a parcel-like manner around minced pork or beef meat, chopped onions and/or rice or barley; most often baked and refried in a spicy or sweet-and-sour tomato sauce.  We didn't have anything special planned for tonights dinner so this was certainly a treat from Renata.

Wielka niespodzianka danym nam przez znajomego, gołąbki na obiad. Gołąbki są formą gołąbki. Są to tradycyjne naczynie wykonane z polskich miękko kapusty, które są zapakowane w sposób podobny do działki około mielonego mięsa wieprzowego i mięsa wołowego, posiekaną cebulę i / lub ryżu lub jęczmienia, najczęściej pieczone i grillowana w pikantnym lub słodko-i -kwaśnym sosie pomidorowym. Nie mieliśmy nic specjalnego planowanych dla obiadu dzisiejszych wieczorów, tak to z pewnością traktować z Renata.

Sandra,
Thanks for your kind comments. If you deeper in the blog, at the first months archived in 2006, you'll learn the main reason I moved to Poland is because to family that I have here but never knew when I was young. My great grandfather immigrated to the U.S. in 1900 and now I have, more or less, completed the circle. I haven't been to England yet but I will journey there. I have a young cousin who lives in Luton.
Thanks again for writing. It comments like yours that keep me writing.
