Michael Beijer Dec 5, 2022:
yeah, agree also, a whole jar of the stuff does seem a bit much, right?

But I can't find any reference to the word "polje" being used in Dutch, other than as:

"polje:
Geology
A flat-floored depression in a karstic region, especially in Slovenia, with steep enclosing walls and a covering of alluvium." (Oxforddictionaries.com)
writeaway Dec 5, 2022:
Very inexact for a recipe If it's a 'potje', then what size potje? 125gr, 250gr? A jar is hardly a precise measurement. You have to provide more context.

@Doug: Looks like it might be a typo, for potje. Any more context?
