Húsos galuska – Meaty dumplings

by | Oct 1, 2021 | Noodles

Meaty dumplings are a no fuss noodle dish that can help you solve your “what’s for lunch/dinner” dilemma. It’s a combination of the popular Hungarian galuska (or nokedli) and a thick stew made from ground pork. The dumplings are topped with a sour cream-paprika mixture and cooked in the oven until golden brown. And what is more, you can test how red pepper paste I shared last week works in practice.

Hungarian cottage cheese

This is what Hungarian túró looks like

You often ask me what kind of cottage cheese (or curd cheese or farmer's cheese - call it what you want) I use in the recipes. In Hungary the store-bought cottage cheese is dry and crumbly as you can see in the picture. So if a recipe calls for túró, I mean this type. If you can't obtain túró, you can try to make your own from whole milk. Click on the link below.

Metric system vs cup

In Hungary metric units are in use, all the recipes on this website are based on this system, so a kitchen scale is necessary. Since I’m not familiar with cup as a measurement unit, I convert grams to cups by using an online converter. The values in brackets, therefore, are only approximate volumes, so, please, double-check them before you start cooking.
