Life / Is cancer treatment in Poland covered free of cost or almost free of cost for people registered in NFZ/ZUS? [17]
The treatment is free to the point it's standard, approved by the gov and all that. If you have to go abroad for some new or experimental treatment then you are on your own
Btw, sorry to hear that Dolno, hope all is good

Well, we will see how it will work for them. It's an emotional issue and with this they pushed the emotions of public against the new law. Of course with a lot of work on programs etc they could influence how people feel about it but for now it might be hard

That's how a women in my family lost her virginity.
And even earlier than that. During family event when all the family members were moaning how young are immoral and all that said: And you all forgot how in spring only the the hay bales were moving?
And in the summer.... you didn't get too close to the bushes.... or you might see wildlife you didn't

From what I read Polish cuisine was reach in kasza dishes as obviously in the past they didn't have potatoes. Healthy choice .
How do you guys feel about krupnik- the soup with kasza?

Really? From what I read the Russian one is with milk. There is no milk here...
Different recipes call for different types. If you want I can translate one or two recipes and post them?
Rather like the kasza porridge

Not sure what to make of that as there are different types of kasza.

Recently we have new type of dish gaining popularity- kaszotto. The main part in all different forms is that it has some groats that are cooked in the dish like rice in risotto.

What???
As to the beans- I don't eat English breakfast but on the past if my Mom made 'fasolka po bretońsku' I would eat it for every meal until it was gone.
You make me hungry! But instead of tequila I will go for beer :)
Scrambled eggs and beer

Of course it gets folded

Most of the time. If I can't cook in the week I cook more on weekend and freeze. Of course I also make some ready made fish fingers or from the jar sauce (I absolutely love Sainsbury's own brand Tikka Masala sauce)
Sadly no. The most popular foreign cuisine in UK is Indian. But I do like what passes on for Mexican food here and in Poland. It reminds me it's time to make some enchiladas
Do you cook like this all the time?

Yeah. Although as Jon pointed out it's not technically correct name. And thank you for your compliment. I like filling food. When I first heard of 'comfort food' this is the kind of food I imagined. Sheppard pie, fasolka po bretonsku, nice stew...Something that warms you up and fills you up...Mac and Cheese would never come to my mind. That reminded me...See you in the Polish food thread :P
Is that Shepard Pie in your photos???

We do then :)
What I find surprising is the lack of some take away home meals place in UK. Something between the frozen meals and restaurant.
In my hometown they had a place like that. Not too many dishes and not too fancy but healthy enough you could give it to kids without feeling bad.

You Brits and your gravy :P
Standard mielone. Taste the best with something slightly sour (kapusta kiszona, ogórki kiszone od buraczki) but sadly I don't have any so I opted for some steamed veggies.
Btw, is there a reason why it's almost impossible to get yellow wax beans in UK?
