My mother used to cook chicken only on Sundays. Why? I really don’t know. We did not eat often chicken, even though we had chickens and plenty of range free eggs. Anyways here is moms version of her butter braised chicken. My favorite part of the chicken always has been the wings, breast and thigh. In this recipe I used wings.
Kapsalon, has turned into one of the most popular street foods of the Netherlands it has an interesting mix of influences: Dutch and Middle-Eastern. The name kapsalon comes from the Dutch word for hairdressing shop, and the dish itself is a recent invention — it was created in 2003 in Rotterdam. An owner of a hairdresser shop used to have his lunch at a nearby shoarma shop. He asked to add various toppings such as Gouda cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, garlic sauce, and spicy Indonesian sauce sambal. Kapsalon soon grew popular with both the locals and the tourists, and it didn’t take long for before it became a major fast food hit. In the Netherlands, kapsalon is most commonly enjoyed as a quick and filling lunch, or as a hangover-preventing snack after a night of drinking.
There is no Dutch style Shoarma shop in my neighborhood so I make my own version of Shoarma.

Below is the recipe the way my mother used to make Zuurkool with stoofpeertjes. We, the children refused to eat Zuurkool without something sweet. So my mother added the stoofpeertjes. I do see on the internet, that we were not the only ones adding something sweet to the Zuurkool, like apple or pineapple.
