   Let's prepare the ingredients. The longest time in preparation for preparing this dish is collecting honey mushrooms. This process is very important and responsible; you need to be able to distinguish real honey mushrooms from false ones, so as not to collect poisonous mushrooms. After collecting the honey mushrooms, carefully sort them out, wash them, cut off part of the stem, leaving a couple of centimeters on top.

   It is better to freshly pick mushrooms, in order to remove not only various kinds of dirt, but also insects hidden in the mushrooms, soak them in salted cold water for a couple of hours. Then we rinse the honey mushrooms again and place them in a colander to drain off excess water. Large mushroom caps can be cut, small mushroom caps can be left whole.

   Wash the potatoes, peel them and cut them into thin strips or cubes, as you like. Peel the onions, if the head is not large, cut it into rings, if large, into halves of rings.
