I do not know the correct spelling but to a British ear it sounded like it was called:Pastacheeky. Any ideas? God that was lovely.

Huegel Threads: 1Posts: 333Joined: Jul 26, 2006 ♂ Edited by: Huegel Mar 1, 2007, 02:21pm # Hmm, sounds right, but definitely no egg or mushroom. I'd have said more a glorified sausage roll...it was minced meat, other goodness (green stuff usually) wrapped in puff pastry, cooked and enjoyed. But she definitely said it was called pasticziki (pastacheeky)Is there more than one version?

Tamara Threads: 12Posts: 225Joined: Mar 1, 2007 ♀ Mar 1, 2007, 02:42pm # Yes - Paszteciki probably (thanks for the spelling correction) Some recipes do have finely minced hard-boiled egg and most have minced mushroom but usually a dried mushroom which would be hard to distinquish from the minced meat. They are great! I wish I had a good recipe

msbjf Threads: 3Posts: 13Joined: Mar 1, 2007 ♀ Apr 10, 2008, 06:22am # I know them as Kruschickies or something that sounds like that. Dough fried in oil then powdered sugar on them.
randompal Threads: 7Posts: 431Joined: Jul 10, 2007 ♂ Apr 10, 2008, 06:53am # they are called Faworki if it is only dough with a covering of powdered sugar. If they are stuffed with something they are called something else: paszteciki contain pate or perhaps mushrooms, szpinakowce contain spinnach, etc..
