For me, it's kompe. It's a dish that's eaten in southern Norway, which consists of a little ball of salt pork surrounded by a potato dumpling. As the dumping is boiled, the flavor of the pork spreads through the potato, and it's a way to make a very poor meal feel like much more.
Most often eaten with butter, sugar, and lingonberry jam, I think the leftovers fried up on the second day are the best!

Mine would be pancit luglug from the Philippines. My dad would always buy it for me after Sunday mass. It came wrapped in a banana leaf and news paper and tied shut with plastic straw.
