    I've made this dish from this recipe twice now, with small variations. I add paprika liberally, because the sausage that I can find in Western Michigan is spiced differently from Hungarian sausage and is missing that key flavor. (This time we did a combination of Otto's hot italian chicken sausage and Young Earth Farms' pork andouille sausage, both from our Kalamazoo farmers market.) The variation in the photo I just added is made without cheddar cheese, though I think I prefer it with, as we made it the first time around. As others have commented, ricotta and onions are sometimes missing from other Rakott Krumpli recipes, because the dish is made in different variations in Hungary also. I just can't imagine it being as good without onions, though, and I think I'll even ramp up the amount a bit on the next go round. This last time I deglazed the onion pan with a little bit of beer I was drinking .. it was a genius move :) RE the eggs, folks, you slice them up and incorporate them into the layers. Thanks for the trip down memory lane, Paprikamama! Nagyon finom volt! ;)

    http://www.bende.com/ - can order Hungarian sausage here.
    We never put ricotta in ours, just sour cream. We also never put cheese on top, but we did put bacon on bottom, sides and top (no need to oil the pan if you do this). Baked up nice and crispy!!! Also we didn't add onions. Just layered the potatoes, sausage, sliced hard boiled eggs and sour cream twice and then ended with potatoes, sour cream and bacon slices. Any way you do it, it is good!!!

    Paprikaneni, Do you have any idea where you can get real Hungarian kolbasz in the States? Are there places you know of where you can order it? Or do you just substitute American sausage, or make it at home? I love rakott krumpli, but I can't imagine eating a dish like this with anything but the full-flavored Hungarian sausage.
