Babka ziemniaczana

This simple potato casserole is believed to have originated from the popular Jewish kugel. It consists of seasoned grated potatoes that are combined with eggs, then the concoction is baked until golden and crispy. Formerly associated with the eastern Polish regions, babka ziemniaczana became the nation’s favorite due to its simplicity. Today, it exists in many regional varieties which primarily differ in texture, and often incorporate fried onions or crispy bacon. Whether it is baked as a uniformed or layered casserole, potato babka is usually served sliced and can be enjoyed as a light main course or a nutritious snack.
