Technique notes
Polish kitchen
Polish prażuchy are boiled potatoes thickened with flour, beaten until cohesive and served with browned onions.
Cook onions in oil over medium-low heat for 18–20 minutes until deeply golden.
Cover potatoes with salted water and boil until tender, about 15 minutes. Pour off all but ½ cup water.
Sprinkle flour evenly over potatoes, cover and cook over very low heat for 5 minutes without stirring.
Beat potatoes and flour vigorously until cohesive, adding reserved water if needed. Spoon into bowls and top with onions.
Review ingredient labels for allergens and cross-contact. Follow the recipe’s handling notes, refrigerate perishable food promptly, and use an instant-read thermometer where a safe internal temperature is specified.
