Langos - a Hungarian snack
November 13th, 2018 | starter
In Budapest, you get it everywhere: Lángos – a fried potato-yeast dough spread with garlic and sour cream. Grated cheese and a touch of paprika complete the taste. Whether it tastes just as good at home… We tried it. And, yes! Lángos are delicious, even at home!
In the big market hall in Budapest on the first floor they also serve Lángos. Unfortunately, they are degenerated into pizza-like puff pastries, which are covered with all sorts of things (salami, mushrooms, pineapple, etc.), which certainly have nothing to do with a traditional Hungarian Lángos. On the Margaret Island and in the Puszta, on the other hand, we were allowed to taste genuine Lángos. The following recipe comes very, very, very close…. only the Hungarian environment is missing…

Nowhere else in Hamburg you’ll find such a well-stocked and wonderfully presented fish display as in FrischeParadies. And where do you find this paradise for foodies? Of course, in the Große Elbstraße [Great Elbe Street]. Where else.

I processed my harvest into a very fine sauce for the venison steak. Chilli, ginger, red and port wine and the fruity sweetness of blackberries – the sauce is really phantastic…
