Hi there ^^

I just realised that if we have a community from all over the world there must be people in here who can cook. As i really like to cook and try different recipes, i thought, maybe you can

a) tell me your favorite food (if possible from your country/region)
b) give me a recipe for it

That would be really awesome. Sure you can look on the net for some "original" recipes for this and that, but asking someone who lives where it comes from how he makes and what he uses as ingredients - that´s just soooo much better.

And now for the thing you really came here:

jip jip

Update:
startet today with cooking those recipes ^^

I love pierogi. But in my house we're making them with sauerkraut, champignons, carrot and meat so they are "weird" for most people.

I assume it's commonplace in Germany as well but one of my favourite dishes is "Knödelsterz". in some areas it's called "Semmelgröstl"
First you cut dumplings into small pieces and roast them in a pan with a bit of oil until they have a nice colour and become crunchy. (This is in my opinion the critical step... so make sure the pieces are evenly roasted and are nice and crunchy) Next you crack open a few eggs and mix in a little bit of salt and pour the eggs over the roasted dumplings and leave it on the stove, stirring every now and then until the eggs have become solid. You could also add a little diced bacon or other meats or even mushrooms and stuff like that.

It's a quite simple dish (if you already have dumplings from the day before) and you can pretty much prepare it whatever way you like best but I normally use 3 eggs on 2 dumplings. It goes great with a cold glass of milk.

We totally have that too in Czechia! It doesn't have a fancy name, though.

:D I wouldn't be surprised if that's where we picked it up. A lot of food that is now considered typical austrian originally comes from other countries that used to be part of the Habsburg monarchy. Gulasch being one of the best known examples I think.

Could be, could be. But not like it's high cuisine, it's literally leftovers with one of the most common ingredients, sounds like something people would invent on their own every once in a while. :)

I guess I can cook since my GF always praises my creations.

As for a favorite regional(Crete, Greece) food I would definitely say fried snails with rosemary.

Heat the pan
Put olive oil to cover the surface of the pan
Throw salt all over the surface of the pan
Put the snails face down
Cook in medium-high heat for ~5 minutes (I like them well done)
Stir them
Put some vinegar and the rosemary
Cook for a couple more minutes (don't over cook after putting the rosemary it will taste bad)
Serve them with some french fries/salad/ or some cooked greens.
Fried snails DON.
(I like to deep bread on the oil. It tastes so good with the rosemary and the vinegar)

Nice coincidence :) I've just made a difficult (as for me; because I have almost zero experience in it) salad. It's my first such serious salad which I've ever cooked. And I just ate it at 2 am ^_^ I think, I will go to bed late.
Anyway, here's the recipe: link. Use translate function and you'll get everything. Sorry, it's too late for me to prepare my translation. Because of your previous rich experience, many things must be obvious for you :) The salad is really tasty!

Ahh awesome topic! I bookmarked it to come back as I love to cook / eat and especially try out new stuff from around the world (as long as my allergies allow me to). I can't think of anything special, so here's a pretty 0815 recipe that I'm addicted to :3

EDIT: And thanks for the train ride, haven't even seen it at first because I was so excited about the answers trolol..
