a family recipe that hardly anyone knows, but is still delicious

First, add the boiling potatoes. Simply place them in water and let them boil. They’re done when you pierce them with a fork and the potatoes no longer stick to the fork. This takes about 15-20 minutes. Meanwhile, peel the cucumbers and cut them into pieces. In a large pot, fry the ham briefly in a little oil. Then add the canned tomatoes and sugar. Immediately after, add the sliced ​​cucumbers. Let everything cook until the cucumbers are soft, stirring occasionally. I personally like the cucumbers to have a very slight bite. And that’s it – no salt, no pepper, no additional liquid, the cucumbers and ham do the trick. Tips: I always mash the boiling potatoes and mix it on the plate. If you like, you can add a few meatballs. Personally, I find it extremely delicious without them.
