Here’s a classic Galuska – Hungarian Dumplings recipe 🥣🇭🇺 — soft, pillowy dumplings perfect for soups, stews, or paprikás dishes.
Galuska (Hungarian Dumplings)
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup water (or adjust as needed)
Instructions
- Prepare the dough
- In a bowl, mix flour and salt.
- Beat eggs with water, then gradually stir into the flour to make a soft, sticky dough.
- Boil water
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Form dumplings
- Use a spoon or spaetzle maker to drop small pieces of dough into the boiling water.
- Dumplings should be bite-sized (about 1–2 cm).

- When dumplings float to the surface, cook 2–3 more minutes.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.
- Serve
