Ordered this pork knuckle dish called the Squealer at the a baby-friendly restaurant in Budapest at the Pauley Ede street. The restaurant's name is Pest Vakvarjú Restaurant. They wrote there in the menu that it is cooked in the "jóasszony style" :) Food is quite okay, just want to highlight that the staff and place is really very baby-friendly - and I really appreciate it!

This is one of my favourite Hungarian food. It is roasted duck with braised red cabbage. My favourite way to eat it is with whipped pototo or some people called it 'mashed potato'. Here's my recipe for the Braised Red Cabbage:-

• Generously sprinkle with salt.
• Mix well and let stand for 1 hour.
• In a saucepan, heat up the oil.
• Add the cabbage, sugar, caraway seeds and ground pepper.
• Cover and SLOWLY simmer. Do NOT add water.
• When the cabbage is “crunchy tender”
• Serve

1. Sprinkle salt and pinch of pepper to the chicken (thinly sliced) breast meat.
2. Leave it on to season it for 10 minutes.

One of my favourite Hungarian snacks is the Palacsinta. Actually, it is the same as pancakes. Its ingredients are egg, flour, milk & water. It is absolutely easy to make! I just love it with Nutella :) Sometimes I go for the Hungarian cottage cheese filling too :) It smells great especially with some fresh lemon juice on the cheese. The key difference of these Palacsinta to the american pancakes is that, you got to make it very very thin :)

Ingredients
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
Pinch salt
1 cup carbonated mineral water
Oil for cooking pancakes

Directions
Mix eggs, flour, milk and salt to make a smooth pancake batter. Let the batter rest for 1 hour.

Stir in the carbonated water at the last moment, just before cooking the pancakes.

Heat an 8-inch frying pan. When the pan is hot, add 1/4 teaspoon oil. Swirl to cover the bottom of the pan.

Pour a ladle of the batter into the pan and gently tip and twist the pan so that the batter THINLY covers the entire bottom of the pan. When the top of the batter bubbles, turn the pancake over and cook for 4 or 5 seconds longer. Remove the pancake. Continue until the batter is all cooked; add a little oil before cooking each pancake.

Serve by spreading your favourite fruit jam, cocoa mix, Nutella, cottage cheese with drips of lemon juice or any of your favorite filling and roll up the pancake, serve with fresh berries.

Enjoy!

Using a yeast dough or short dough, you can make scones together with butter, eggs, milk, sour cream, the Hungarian way.  Sometimes, they are mini ones, topped with cheeses of various types. I particularly like those with pork crackling! Tepertő is the sinful addition, but it makes Pogacsa so special in taste and so addictive. You may also find other types like with poppy seeds, caraway seeds, garlic, sweet paprika, black pepper, sesame seeds, some even sunflower seeds. Even the sizes and consistency inside differs from place to place. Traditionally, Pogacsa is an appetiser or snack or finger food at parties, during small gatherings, meetings, discussions. Some people also eats it together with goulash.

Duck breast served with mashed potatoes with onion and bacon and creamy cabbage

The way the duck breast meat has been prepared made it a very delicious meal! It was cook to medium. The creamy cabbage is very unique too! Loved it, love the entire meal, those mashed potatoes tasted great too......so much to compliment about this food!

I've ordered this last evening for celebrating my birthday. It was a wonderful dinner with Zsolt. I love the ambience of this restaurant too, sitting and eating in the outdoor is more popular.
