The best part is it cooks all day while you get stuff done. When you are ready, all you have to do is boil some egg noodles and toss them in.

It really doesn’t get much easier than that. And it is a great way to make cabbage palatable to the whole family.

Tips and Tricks

Don’t overcook the noodles. They will cook more when you stir them in with the cabbage mixture.

So boil them a minute or two less than the package directs you to. Drain off the water and stir them into the cabbage to let them absorb some of the flavorful juices.

Chop your cabbage into bite-sized pieces. It doesn’t really take that long and makes the meal easier to eat later.

Adjust the seasoning to your liking before serving. The sausage adds a lot of flavor to the dish, but different sausages and different taste preferences mean some people may want more salt or pepper.

If you like a richer haluski, you can stir in a couple of pats of butter when you stir in the noodles. However, we find the sausage adds plenty of rich flavor.

What is haluski?

Haluski is noodles mixed with cabbage fried and onions. Sometimes bacon or sausage is added to the mix. It is generally believed to be a Polish or Slovak dish, though Ukrainians and Hungarians also claim the recipe.

Storage

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freezing isn’t recommended because the texture of the noodles will change.

    This was excellent. I would not have thought to put the brown sugar in this, however, I put brown sugar in my kraut. lol

    1. I am so glad that you liked it! I think the brown sugar helps to balance the sauer in the kraut. 😉
