I have an uncle that lives in budapest Hungary. He sent this over to me so I could have the real way to cook it. Love it! So much better than the American versions I have had. He visited once and made it with this recipe and it is so good. I like to eat it with bread.

  • 2
    Once water boils add beef and stir until well browned. Add some water, cumin and black pepper.
  • 3
    Boil for 50 minutes and add water many times while the meat softens.
  • 4
    Add parsnip, carrot, yellow pepper, paprika, and tomatoes. Cook for another 40 min and add potatoes, salt, green pepper, and garlic. Pour more water to keep soup consistency. Bring to a boil for another 15 min.
  • 5
    MAKE PINCHED NOODLES

    Combine all ingredients with enough flour to make a firm dough. Let dough sit for 5 min. Roll dough and pinch off dime sized pieces. Add pinched noodles and boil for a few minutes longer. When noodles float to the surface they are finished.
