Draniki with mushrooms

Draniki with mushrooms is a traditional dish of Belarusian cuisine that combines the tenderness of potatoes with the rich flavor of fried mushrooms. Draniki originated from rural cuisine where potatoes were always an accessible product and mushrooms added zest. The golden crust makes them crispy on the outside while remaining soft and aromatic inside. Mushrooms with onions give the dish a rich and slightly sweet taste that pairs perfectly with sour cream. These draniki can be served as a standalone dish or as a side dish. They are especially good in cold weather when you crave something hearty and warming.
