Duck with halušky: how to cook a nutritious and tasty dish for lunch

Halušky is a dish consisting of boiled dough without any filling. They can be served separately, for example, with sour cream or mushroom sauce. Or they can even be added to borscht. In addition, halušky are very well combined with other ingredients and become part of a separate dish.

Food blogger Volodymyr Yaroslavsky followed the latter principle. He posted a recipe for duck with halušky on Instagram. According to him, this dish contains a piece of Poltava's soul.
