Sólet Cholent

Sólet ("SHOW-LET") is what Hungarians call "cholent," the traditionally Jewish bean stew slow cooked for the Sabbath. It is a popular dish in Hungary among Jews and gentiles alike, and not just on Saturday. It is commonly served with a very non-kóser slice of smoked pork, but is also widely eaten with goose or duck and boiled egg.
