One of the first street foods and fast foods in Poland, with origins in communistic 80ties. Zapiekanka – Roasted baguette originally was prepared with onion, champignons, cheese and ketchup. My version is with salami, onions and 3 types of cheese.
Try more PRL Polish cuisine, you may like Paprykarz or Polish Leczo.

Ingredients
- baguette
- salami or other meats’ slices
- onion (optional)
- cheese – few types
- ketchup
Cut baguette along, place salami slices, chopped onion and cheese. I used 2 usual soft cheese slices and one grated slow ripened type of cheese.
Roast Zapiekanki in hot oven (360F/ 180 C) for 10 minutes.
Classic version:
- 400 g/ 1 lb champignons
- 1 onion
- yellow cheese
Saute diced onion, add diced mushrooms, salt and pepper.
Make a shallow hole in the middle of baguette. Fill it with mushroom filling. Sprinkle with grated cheese.
Place Zapiekanki in hot oven (360F/ 180 C) for 10 minutes.
Smacznego! 🙂
