Easy

Basic Dumplings

A basic recipe to which you can add your own choice of fresh herbs. Use in soups and rich stews.

Easy

Hungarian beef casserole

Recipe by: GOURMETFOX

This is my grandmother's recipe. Beef is slowly cooked until tender, with sour cream added at the end to create a luscious gravy. Serve with plenty of bread to mop up the gravy.

Easy

Chilled beetroot soup

Recipe by: Rosemary

Tinned beetroot is great for this recipe, making it ready in minutes. You can save the juice, freeze it and add it in place of the chilled water or ice. Try serving with a dollop of soured cream.

Easy

Czech cabbage and bacon

Recipe by: dlynn11

Cooked cabbage with bacon, onion, celery, green capsicum and vinegar.

Easy

Date haroset

Recipe by: Katy

Haroset is a traditional Jewish Passover dish. This haroset recipe is more of a sweet, and very different from the typical apple based variety. It can be stored in the refrigerator for one week in an air-tight container.

Easy

Hungarian Goulash

Recipe by: ENVIRO2

This classic dish is warming and delicious. My mum made this when we were children, and we loved it. It's a good dish to use cheaper cuts of meat which become very tender when slowly cooked.. If it gets too thick, add a little water while it's cooking. Garnish with crème fraîche or sour cream.

Easy

Hungarian Lentil Soup

Recipe by: Gabriella

This lentil soup recipe is based on a traditional Hungarian recipe which uses paprika for flavour. We eat it on New Years day to symbolise good financial fortune for the coming year.

Easy

Hungarian Chicken Paprikash

Recipe by: MARLANA ADAMEK

Chicken is pan fried in butter and paprika and served with pan fried mushrooms and onions. Delicious Hungarian comfort food.

Easy

Kolaches

Recipe by: Michelle Beard

This is a basic recipe for the traditional Czech pastry. They can be made with a variety of fillings, but this one uses your favourite jam. My preference is for a good quality apricot jam.

Easy

Chocolate Babka

Recipe by: Nina

This recipe is the next best thing to a bakery babka! Although babkas are traditionally yeast-risen breads, this one is more similar to a sweet quick bread or cake.

Easy

Sugar-free rugelach

Recipe by: Warren P. Silberstein, M.D.

This naturally sweet rugelach needs no artificial ingredients. It's a delectable cream cheese pastry filled with sultanas, nuts and cinnamon.

Easy

Apricot Kolache

Recipe by: Mollie Nagel

Kolache are Czech biscuits traditionally made with a yeast dough and fruit filling. In this version a non-yeasted dough is used.

Easy

Rugelach

Recipe by: Jackie

I have many rugelach recipes, but this is truly the best I have ever made.

Easy

Kielbasa and Cabbage

Recipe by: Katherine Denning

This smoked Polish sausage dish is great for company! It is super good and easy, and can be prepared well in advance. Complete meal by adding baked potato, fruit salad, and bread.

Easy

Kolaczki

Recipe by: Yvonne

Jam filled holiday cookies which have been a tradition for every Polish Christmas Eve I can remember.

Easy

Polish Sausage with Red Cabbage

Recipe by: Irene

Truly satisfying kielbasa with cabbage, simmered in a thickened red wine and lemon sauce. Beef broth may be substituted for the red wine.

Easy

Romanian Apple Cake

Recipe by: Mona

This is a wonderfully simple, yet delicious cake. It is so moist and fresh, it will surely be a favourite with your family, just like it is with mine! Most of the preparation time is taken up in peeling and cutting the apples. A mixture of apples works great, although I usually use Golden Delicious.

Easy

Matzo apple kugel

Recipe by: Cindy Faigin

Delicious Passover specialty that's easy and can be served with either meat or dairy dinners! Can also be made ahead and cooked later.

Easy

Musaka

Recipe by: Lisa

I learned this from my Bulgarian mother in law though it's probably Turkish in origin. It's a tasty twist on meat and potatoes.
