Galuska – Hungarian Dumplings🇭🇺

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Make the batter:
    • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, water (or milk), and salt.
    • Add flour gradually, mixing until you get a thick, sticky batter (not runny, not too firm).
  2. Boil water:
    • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  3. Shape the dumplings:
    • Using a spaetzle maker, colander with large holes, or a spoon, drop small portions of dough into the boiling water.
    • Work in batches to avoid sticking.
  4. Cook:
    • Stir gently and cook for about 2–3 minutes, until the dumplings float to the top.
  5. Drain:
    • Remove with a slotted spoon and place in a colander.
    • Toss with a little butter or oil to prevent sticking.

🍴 Serving Ideas:

  • Traditionally served with Chicken Paprikás (Paprikás Csirke).
  • Delicious alongside goulash or beef stews.
  • Can also be sautéed lightly in butter and topped with cheese for a quick snack.

💡 Tip: If you don’t have a spaetzle maker, use a cutting board: spread dough thin and cut small strips directly into the boiling water.
