About Dzūkiška Banda
TV3 records Regina teaching chef Gian Luca Demarco to make Dzūkija potato banda during his visit to the region. The potato dish has a distinctive cabbage-leaf presentation.
Raw and boiled potatoes give this rendition its body. Salt seasons the potato base, while smoked pork fat and onion contribute the rich crackling accompaniment.
Sour cream and a curd-cheese sauce appear alongside the potato bake. The combination presents the region's cabbage-leaf banda with both dairy and savoury pork accompaniments.
