Haluski is a traditional Polish dish made of fried cabbage and egg noodles. It bakes up into a dish of buttery comfort food!
My children, like most, are straight up obsessed with noodles.
I swear, they would eat pasta every night of the week if I weren’t around to veto their dinner ideas.
Don’t get me wrong, though. We eat plenty of pasta. I don’t veto them ALL the time. I’m only human and noodles are life.
Amish Noodles (an Amish recipe, so you know it’s good) are a favorite side in this house.
Crockpot beef and noodles are always a hit with my kiddos, too.
And, obviously, my one pot spaghetti recipe is to die for.
But thishaluski recipe? Oh yeah. It’s a completely new twist on pasta for us and we all LOVE it!
You don’t have to feel quite so guilty eating it, because there is cabbage mixed in. Yeah, it’s all buttery and delicious, but it’s not just straight carbs, so that makes it okay in mind. Right??

What Readers are Saying!
“I made this yesterday, and we absolutely loved it! Even my sister, who likes neither noodles or cabbage, ate every bite. It will become a permanent part of my culinary repertoire. I see that someone above used bacon, I’m definitely trying that.”

How To Make Haluski:

Noodles: First up, you’re going to boil some egg noodles. I’ve just used the traditional curly looking egg noodles that you buy in the dried pasta aisle. No need to get fancy here.
Chop: Next, you’ll chop up some cabbage. You can do this while the pasta is boiling. I like to keep the cabbage around the same size as the noodle, so that everything combines together nicely.
Sauté: Add some sliced onions to a pot with melted butter and cook them until they’re nice and soft. Stir in a little garlic for good measure.
Add a little more butter to the pot along with the chopped cabbage. Cook that up until tender.
Stir the cabbage and onion mixture into the cooked egg noodles and season. I like quite a bit of salt and pepper on mine.
Helpful Tip!
- Be sure to use a large pot when cooking your onions and cabbage. There’s a lot of it and, while it cooks down nicely, it starts out as quite a lot. I used my 5 quart dutch oven for this recipe!
Bake: Spread everything into a large baking dish and then cook at 300 degrees for about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to your taste!
Thisfried cabbage and noodles recipe is such a simple dish, but for some reason it just works. I don’t generally think of cabbage when I think of comfort food, but it’s all so buttery and tasty and warm and just downright good. I bet you’ll love it!
Fry up some keilbasa to serve with this and you’ve got a great easy meal! It also goes great with ham or bacon!

Halusky are the noodles/dumplings themselves and are not at all like store-bought egg pasta noodles. This whole post is just wrong, wrong, wrong on so many levels.

Sorry, but this post is not wrong. Haluski, as we know it in the U.S. is an American dish of vaguely central and eastern European origins. There are many recipes for haluski, with no one correct or authentic recipe. I am from Pittsburgh, it is ALWAYS made with egg noodles, never potato dumplings. Where you are from it may be different. Also, it is very rude to rate someone’s recipe if you haven’t actually made it. It does a disservice to the other readers and to the author.

It is not an American dish, Melissa. Just because some Americans bastardised it doesn’t make it American!
It is not rude to rate a recipe poorly when the recipe itself is completely trash. Doesn’t matter if I make it or not. The recipe itself is just complete rubbish that takes the name of a specific dish from another culture and appropriates it and turns it into some disgusting casserole.
Look at the damn Wikipedia article for what halušky is!
Melissa says
Brenden, thanks for making my case for me. As a matter of fact, I did check out the “damn” Wikipedia article you referenced where it states in the very first paragraph that halušky “are a traditional variety of thick, soft noodles or dumplings cooked in the Central and Eastern European cuisines.”The entry also goes on to state “Halušky can refer to the dumplings themselves, or to the complete dish.” And again, in the Wikipedia entry under variations: “In the United States, most adapted halusky recipes call for egg noodles rather than potato dumplings.” Reading comprehension is everything, or maybe you didn’t read the article. Also, disgusting is in the eye of the beholder.

I had this recipe given to me from a polish family and they added bacon, though they did not bake it, they cooked the noodles, in separate pan they cooked the bacon, drained most of the grease then cooked the cabbage and onions in the grease with added butter as needed then added the noodles and served it, very good!

I am from Buffalo NY and am from a Polish family where my mother’s family spoke Polish. I never heard of “haluski” as Polish words don’t often begin with an h. It wasn’t until I lived in Pittsburgh that I heard if this Slavic dish. They also called kielbasa “kolbassi”. Another Slavic interpretation. My mother informed me that “leniwe Pierogi” or lazy Pierogi was similar.
Anyway, it is a great side dish!Reply
