Põletusega

Põletusega is a traditional Estonian dish that has been a staple in Estonian cuisine for centuries. The name "põletusega" translates to "with burning" in English, referring to the cooking method used to prepare the dish. The primary ingredients of põletusega are potatoes, onions, and bacon. The potatoes are peeled and cut into cubes, while the onions are thinly sliced. The bacon is cooked in a pan until crispy, then the onions are added and sautéed until soft. The potatoes are then added to the pan and cooked until they begin to brown and caramelize, which gives the dish its distinctive flavor. The dish is typically served with a side of sour cream or kefir, which helps to balance the richness of the potatoes and bacon. Põletusega is a hearty and comforting dish that is often enjoyed during the colder months of the year. It is a popular dish in Estonia and is often served at family gatherings and special occasions.
