POLISH STIR-FRY- RACHAEL RAY (VEGETARIAN VERSION)



Polish Stir-Fry- Rachael Ray (Vegetarian Version) image

From Food Network website. I have changed this to be a vegetarian dish. You can substitute vegetarian kielbasa with the real thing, of course. I have made this a couple of times, and the taste changes depending on the type of pierogis used. You can use beet leaves rather than kale, if you'd like. This is a great way to use up some of those winter greens! I often leave out the kielbasa all together as there is only two of us here and it is just too large of a dish with it included. Vegetarian kielbasa is available under the Tofurkey and Boca brands at your local health food store (at least in California!)You can also order it online.

3 tablespoons softened butter
1 (18 ounce) package pierogi, frozen (or other potato filled dumpling)
1 (1/2 lb) package vegetarian kielbasa, cut in slices on an angle (optional)

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Brown kielbasa and remove from pan. Cover kielbasa with foil to keep warm.
  • If using meat kielbasa, drain the fat from the pan.
  • In the same pan add 1 Tbsp oil and 1 Tbsp butter. Raise to high heat. Add onion to the pan and sauté for a few minutes to soften.
  • Add chopped kale in batches as it wilts into the pan. When kale is wilted, add sauerkraut.

POLISH STIR-FRY



Polish Stir-Fry image

This recipe originated as Rachael Ray's friend Jon's Polish Stir Fry, but I found out I really don't care for kale. Since I really liked the idea of a Polish Stir Fry I substituted kale with beet tops, and came out with a much better flavor (at least for me).
