Hungarian lángos with sour cream and cheese
The amount of garlic is a matter of taste. The opinion of the environment is usually only asked later.
Potato dumplings
Be careful with the flour: if too much is added, the dumpling becomes a sports equipment.
Hungarian potato pasta
Simple food, but not boring. The secret is properly fried onions and that the potatoes don't have a separate life.
Hungarian cabbage noodles
With sugar or pepper? The correct answer is yes — let each family deal with the issue on their own plate.
Hungarian plum dumplings
In a good dumpling, the plum is the surprise, not the lump of raw flour.
Dill and curd-cheese pie — savoury and sweet
One pasta, two camps. One calls for sugar, the other for salt — dill calmly does its job for both.
Hungarian shepherd’s egg-barley stew
You don't have to be a shepherd, but the pot and the smoky air will definitely improve your CV.
Dödölle — Hungarian potato dumplings
Potatoes, flour, onions — three humble ingredients, which together form a surprisingly strong opinion about hunger.
Hortobágyi meat-filled pancakes
Paprika meat with a silky sauce, wrapped in a pancake. His name is Hortobágyi, but don't ask him for a wilderness passport.
Hungarian lebbencs noodle soup
Toasted pasta, potatoes, bacon: the soup that settles the lunch in one plate.
Hungarian poppy-seed noodles
Poppy seeds, powdered sugar, spelt. Three ingredients and the dentist's favourite black and white board game is ready.
Hungarian semolina pasta — a canteen classic
The canteen either dusted or swam. At home, we toast it until golden brown and make peace with the past with apricot jam.
Hungarian buttery pogácsa biscuits
Leafy, fragrant, dangerous to hold. The bottom of the bowl usually appears sooner than planned.
Hungarian potato pogácsa biscuits
Leftover baked potatoes are the best career turn. It's still soft the next day — if it stays because of some mystery.
Semolina dumpling soup
Fluffy dumplings in golden broth. If they are hard, they are not dumplings, just small semolina planets.
Jam-filled Hungarian pasta pockets
It is also known as Bárátfüle: a pillow of jam in toasted crumbs. It's hard to find a friendlier ear.
Baja-style fisherman’s soup with matchstick noodles
Faster, more direct juice, carp and obligatory matchstick pasta. We offer a separate plate for the Szeged-Baja debate.
Perfect mashed potatoes
Not sticky, not powdery, not a sad pile of side dishes: real, airy, buttery mashed potatoes.
Spaghetti alla Carbonara
Roman favourite with egg, pecorino and guanciale. There's no cream in it, just a silky sauce and serious fork crunch.
Cacio e Pepe
Three main characters: pasta, pecorino and black pepper. A minimalist recipe that notices every move.
Bucatini all’Amatriciana
Tomatoes, guanciale, pecorino and hot peppers: distinct flavors on a thick, hollow dough.
Penne all’Arrabbiata
"Arrabbiata" means spicy, but this pasta is just pleasantly spicy — unless the chili decides otherwise.
Spaghetti Aglio e Olio
The late-night Italian lifeline: garlic, olive oil, chili and pasta. Simple, fast, yet not boring.
Trofie al Pesto Genovese
Fragrant basil, pine nuts, cheese and olive oil. Pesto is happy when it's not cooked.
Spaghetti alla Puttanesca
Tomatoes, olives, capers and anchovies: intense, salty-sour Southern Italian character.
Tagliatelle al Ragù Bolognese
Slow-cooked meat ragu on wide egg pasta. Not fast food, but a fragrant afternoon program.
Fettuccine Alfredo
Butter, Parmesan and fresh fettuccine: the original Roman version is surprisingly simple, yet velvety rich.
