Australia / Polish Culture in Melbourne, Australia [87]

Yes! but not many. Around Melbourne there a few specialty delicatessens which sell cold meats/sausages etc as well as lollies, biscuits and other stuff in packets and jars... you know, like sauces, jelly, pickles etc.. It's funny, you go in there and its like 'little poland' and everyone knows eachother :)

Is anyone going to dziupla??

The Dziupla organisation does discos in North Melbourne every 2 months and a Ball in November at Albion. The next disco is on the 30th of June.

Food / Kopytka, pyzy, kluski [60]

I think you're talking about kopitki - kind of like gnocchi? My mum fries them with bacon...mmm... will look up the recipe if someone doesn't post it 1st.

Boiled potato dumplings - Kluski Kartoflane Gotowane

Serves 6: 2 lbs. potatoes, 4 eggs seperated, s&p, 2tsp parsely (maybe the green onions?)

Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water. Drain and mash. Combine all ingredients and egg yolks and stiff egg whites - fold in. Drop by the spoonful into salted boiling water, cover and wait till they rise to the top. Remove and drain. fry with bacon/fat and serve.

Do the bacon thing! Dice it up finely (including the fat) and fry them up well, add the kopytki and fry till lightly golden - it's to die for! Can't wait to hear how you go.

Hmmm.. I'll have a squizz through my recipe books and see if there is something else that fits the description but I really think this recipe is close.

Actually, if you're into polish cooking, there's a great book I have which I am sure you will be able to buy in the US.

Check it out at:

amazon.com/Polish-Cookery-Bestselling-Cookbook-American/dp/ 0517505266/ref=sr_1_1/104-5884840-2915146?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=11807061 19&sr=1-1

Its called Polish Cookery by Marja Ochorowicz-Montowana. Its a polish book translated by an american.
