Cottage Cheese Noodles (Túrós csusza)🇭🇺.

Instructions

1️⃣ Cook the Noodles

  • Boil salted water in a large pot.
  • Cook noodles until al dente.
  • Drain and set aside.

2️⃣ Cook the Bacon

  • In a skillet, cook diced bacon until crispy.
  • Remove and drain excess fat.

3️⃣ Combine

  • In a large bowl, mix hot noodles with cottage cheese.
  • Add sour cream and salt to taste.
  • Gently fold in the crispy bacon.
  • Optional: sprinkle a pinch of sugar if you like a subtle sweet contrast.

4️⃣ Serve

  • Serve warm.
  • Optional garnish: extra sour cream or fresh parsley.

🌟 Tips for Authentic Túrós Csusza

  • Use real Hungarian-style cottage cheese if possible — it gives the authentic texture.
  • Do not overmix; you want the noodles coated but still separate.
  • Can be served as a main dish or a side.

If you want, I can also give a baked version of Túrós Csusza with cheese and sour cream — it’s creamy, slightly golden, and a true comfort food.

Do you want me to do that?
