Instructions:
- Caramelize the cabbage & onion
- Heat fat in a large skillet or pot.
- Add onions and cabbage, season with salt and a pinch of sugar.
- Cook slowly over medium-low heat, stirring often, until cabbage is soft and golden brown (25–30 minutes).
- Cook the noodles
- Meanwhile, boil noodles in salted water until tender. Drain well.
- Combine
- Toss noodles with caramelized cabbage-onion mixture.
- Adjust with plenty of freshly ground black pepper.
- Serve
- Hot as a main dish or side.
- Some Hungarians add a spoon of sour cream on top, though it’s often eaten plain.
🍽 Notes:
- In some Hungarian households, this dish is enjoyed savory, but others add a little powdered sugar on top for a sweet twist.
- It’s traditionally meatless, often eaten during Lent or as a simple weekday meal.
Would you like me to also share the sweetened version (cukros káposztás tészta) that Hungarian kids often love?
