So, I bought smetana. Now I should find a recipe to use it. How about golubtzi? Stuffed cabbage.
Stuff the cabbage:
Boil cabbage leaves and spread them out on a plate once soft. Cut large veins to make rolling easier.
For the meat-mixture: saute onions and carrots until soft, about 5 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons tomato paste, some tomato sauce, salt, and black pepper, stir very well and cook for another 1 minute. Mix with rice, minced pork, fresh parsley, fresh dill and mix very well.
Put the meat mixture on the cabbage leaves and roll it into a small packages.
Make the sauce:
Fry one onion, add can of tomatoes, a small can of tomato paste and water. Boil. Carefully mix smetana into the tomato sauce. (use fresh dill)
Pour the sauce over the cabbage rolls. (the sauce can be thickened with some flower) Bake in a 170 degree oven for 1 hour.
Serve smetana on the table as well.

Sounds fairly simple. I'll have to go look up what smetana is now though. ;○
