Polish haĆuski (hah-WOOSS-kee) is a comfort-food dish that means different things to different people. We make it with onion and cabbage slowly sautĂ©ed in lots of butter, mixed with al dente-cooked 1/2-inch-wide noodles.
HaĆuski dumplings are made with potato dough, which is sometimes mixed with dry curd cheese or drained cottage cheese. Others add chopped smoked kieĆbasa or ham, or ground pork and sour cream. It's a versatile dish that can be a side or main course. HaĆuski is a good candidate for a potluck, buffet, game day, or anytime a casserole is just the ticket.
Don't confuse this Polish haĆuski recipe with Slovak haluĆĄky (hah-LOOSH-kee), which are dumplings made with a grated potato dough. There are lots of variations of the Slovak version as well.
Ingredients
- 1 onion (very large and sliced into rounds)
- 8-ounces butter (divided)
- 1 large head cabbage (cut into 1-inch pieces)

- Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
- 2 tablespoons water (if necessary)
- 8-ounces egg noodles (1/2-inch wide, cooked)

In a large skillet or Dutch oven, sauté onion in 4-ounces of butter stirring frequently over low heat, until very lightly caramelized. This could take 15 minutes or more.

Do not cover. Sauté slowly stirring frequently over low heat until cabbage is tender but not brown (cook to al dente stage if baking in the oven). This could take 30 minutes or more.
