Deruny
Try while you're alive! 😉
Deruny is one of the most popular and tasty traditional Ukrainian dishes. The name of this dish connected
with a way they are cooked. The most important secret is that you should shred, grate potatoes into pretty
small pieces. To shred is to “derty” – “дерти” in Ukrainian language, so from this verb “derty” (to shred)
they become DERUNY)))
Very often deruny are served with fried mushrooms, cheese, sour cream etc.
There is even the Deruny Fest, which is organized in Korosten city every year. Everybody
may taste different

biggest piece of deruny. Its weight was 140 kg.
