Lazanki

Lazanki (Belarusian: лазанкі, Polish: łazanki [waˈzaŋ.ki] ⓘ, singular łazanka or łazanek,[1] Lithuanian: skryliai) is a Polish, Lithuanian and Belarusian type of pasta.

It consists of wheat, rye or buckwheat dough which is rolled thin and cut into triangles or rectangles.

These are boiled, drained, and eaten with melted pork fat, vegetable oil and often sour cream.

[citation needed] The name probably derives from elongated strips cut from flattened dough, or from las/laska, meaning a wooden stick.

According to an alternative etymology, the Polish name łazanki derives ultimately from the Italian word lasagne, a name for a type of pasta which, like typical lazanki, is also rectangular in shape, except much larger.
