Christmas Eve dinner recipes

In many Slovak families Christmas Eve dinner starts with Christmas wafers with honey, garlic and walnuts. Then come sauerkraut soup with smoked sausage, sauerkraut soup with smoked meat and sausage, the meatless sauerkraut soup with dried porcini and prunes or carp soup, breaded fried carp or baked carp with garlic and caraway with potato salad with mayonnaise and vegetables or potato salad with pickles, or perhaps roast salmon with lemon and herbs. Where fish is not eaten, a breaded pork schnitzel is on the table. Also Slovak potato salad without mayonnaise, vlašský salad and sweet bobáľky. After dinner, tea punch is a good choice.
