Lángos (Hungarian Fried Bread)🇭🇺.


👩‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Activate the yeast: Mix warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 min until foamy.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add yeast mixture, sour cream, and oil. Mix and knead until smooth (8–10 minutes).
  3. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  4. Divide dough into 6–8 balls. Let rest for 10 more minutes.
  5. Flatten each ball into a disk about ½ inch thick, stretching slightly by hand.
  6. Heat oil in a deep skillet (about 350°F / 180°C). Fry one at a time until golden brown, about 2–3 minutes per side.
  7. Drain on paper towels.

🍽️ To Serve:

  • While warm, brush with garlic water, spread with sour cream, and sprinkle with cheese.
  • Or serve sweet with jam or powdered sugar.

Let me know if you want a stuffed version (cheese, ham inside!) or a no-rise shortcut recipe. Lángos is also amazing served with goulash or soup!
