I had some that were store bought frozen but I hadn't eaten them before
and I didn't really know what to do with them. They were really good
even though I baked them. Didn't know about a sauce or what to serve
them with. So I found a recipe for a sauce, then found what they were
traditionally served with kielbasa and found they are also often served
as a side with pork chops. The sauce is a sour cream-garlic-chive sauce
but it isn't as fatty as it sounds. The main ingredient in this sauce
is chicken stock. Only about 1/4 cup sour cream to 1-3/4 cup chicken
stock. Lots of garlic (be sure not to let it burn because it will ruin
the sauce) and chives added as it is served.

Here's the site I found the recipes. There is a "kielbasa rub" for pork
chops there, too.
