• Grease a roasting pan with lard. Pour the onion over the bottom of the pan. Place the seasoned meat on the onion. Pour in 1 cup of water.
• Roast the pork uncovered for 2-2.½ hours or until soft. Flip the meat from time to time, that it has a nice brown color over the whole surface. Also, stir the onion occasionally to prevent it from burning. If all the water evaporates, add ⅓ cup more.

KNEDLIKY - CZECH DUMPLING WITH SAUERKRAUT (ZELI)

Steps:

• Stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Make a well in the center.
• Pour eggs and 1 cup milk into well; stir to blend, adding more milk to make a moist, battery dough, unlike pancake batter. Use a sturdy wooden spoon to beat dough for at least 200 strokes, rolling it over and over in the bowl until smooth and an occasional bubble appears on the surface. Add dry white bread cubes; stir into dough until they disappear.

• Place loaf into boiling water; cook 45 minutes, turning loaf over halfway through. Remove from water, unwrap, and cover with a tea towel. Let stand for 10 minutes.
