Krumplis Tészta is one of the simplest, yet most delicious dishes in Hungarian cuisine. The base of the dish is cooked pasta and potatoes, which are fried together with a little onion and fat, creating a rich, juicy meal. Krumplis Tészta is not only delicious but also filling, making it an ideal choice for a hearty meal.
When making Krumplis Tészta, the potatoes are diced and fried, then tossed with the cooked pasta to allow the flavors to blend well. When serving, it is often offered with sour cream and fresh parsley to make it even more tempting.
Peel the potatoes and dice them into small cubes.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the finely chopped onion until golden.
Add the diced potatoes, season with salt, and sprinkle with Hungarian sweet paprika. Mix well to combine.
Pour in the water and cook the potatoes over medium heat until tender.
Meanwhile, cook the square pasta in salted boiling water according to package directions. Drain well.
Once the potatoes are tender, mash some of them to create a creamier consistency. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet.
Stir well to combine. Season with black pepper and adjust salt to taste, if needed.
Serve hot with pickled vegetables or a fresh salad.
