KRAUTFLECKERL- HUNGARIAN CABBAGE AND NOODLES



Krautfleckerl- Hungarian Cabbage and Noodles image

This dish has its roots in Hungary but is also popular in Austria and Germany. My German grandmother made this using square pieces of pasta but I will post the recipe as I found it on the internet. I like to fry some chopped bacon and garlic together with the onions and cabbage. This a cheap but very good meal. Edit to say, and hope this helps for others who will try this recipe, the step of letting the cabbage sit in the salt is important, it does add a better flavor to the recipe and the texture.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 40m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (3 lb) savoy cabbage, cored, outer leaves removed, shredded (about 8 cups)
2 tablespoons olive oil (probably more than this if you don't use a non-stick pan)
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 yellow onions (American) or 1 brown onion, chopped (Australian)
6 garlic cloves, chopped
2 leeks, thoroughly washed, outer leaves removed, chopped
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1 (12 ounce) package egg noodles
1 tablespoon poppy seed

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large non-stick pan; add the sugar and heat gently until the sugar browns.
  • Add the onions, garlic and leeks; cook until they start to wilt.
  • Stir in the cabbage; sauté, stirring frequently, until the cabbage has softened, about 20 minutes.
  • Season to taste with pepper, and transfer the cabbage mixture and pan juices to a large bowl and keep warm.
  • Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions, then drain. (Alternatively, using pre-cooked vacuum-packed noodles works well, and saves time).
  • Quickly toss the noodles with the cabbage mixture and the poppy seeds.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Notes: Traditionally, this noodle and cabbage dish is served with sour cream. It's certainly delicious with the sour cream. Opt for a lower fat dish another night!

kosher salt
8 oz egg noodles
2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
3 sweet italian turkey sausages (about 9 ounces), casings removed
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
3/4 c chopped roasted red bell peppers
1 Tbsp paprika
1 c low-sodium chicken broth
2 c chopped fresh spinach
1/3 c light sour cream

freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

HUNGARIAN NOODLES



HUNGARIAN NOODLES image

Categories     Pasta

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 egg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup flour, approx.

Steps:

  • It's best not to add water and just add the flour last to get the consistency right, adding a little at a time: Mix ingredients together. The art is in making the paste a loose but sticky consistency. It should pull away like taffy attached to the spoon and be slightly wet and shiny. (Try a few sample noodles in boiling water first.) Put a tablespoonful of mix on a wooden board. Cut off a small 1/4 inch piece from the spoonful ( about a teaspoonful) and flick it with a sharp knife to the edge of the board and into the boiling pot of water. Do this until the noodles are filling the surface of the pot-when they rise to the surface they are done - about 3 minutes. These are noodles that resemble gnocchi. Take them out with a perforated spoon and continue until all the mix is gone. Add butter to the noodles in the bowl so they don't stick. Note: large or small, tender or chewy, even "bad" noodles taste delicious!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially the paprika. Good paprika will have a deep red color and a slightly sweet flavor.
  • Toast the paprika in a little hot oil before adding it to the stew. This will bring out the flavor and prevent it from becoming bitter.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of paprika to your taste. Some people prefer a milder stew, while others like it spicier.
  • Serve the stew with a dollop of sour cream and some fresh parsley.
  • This stew can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to serve. It also freezes well.

Conclusion:

Hungarian noodles are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner. With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be a Hungarian noodle dish that everyone will love.
