Galuska - Hungarian Dumplings

Nokedli or Galuska - Hungarian Dumplings, is a wonderful side dish. We usually serve it with Chicken Paprikás (Chicken Paprikash) or Beef Stew. However it's a simple and so-so delicious dish, it takes a little longer to make than cooking pasta.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups Flour
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 - 1 1/2 cup Water
  • 1/4 cup Oil

Instructions

  • Boil salty water in a large pot.
  • Mix the eggs, salt, and oil.
  • Pour this mixture into the flour.
  • Start mixing it and slowly add the water. You maybe need more or less water, depends on the flour.
  • You need a thick and sticky dough.
  • Add your dough (1/2-3/4 cup at a time) to the galuska (spaetzle) maker.
  • Cut and let the dough drop in the boiling water by sliding the part you put the dough in, on the colander-like part.
  • Stir it from time to time, so they won't stick together.
  • Cook them for about 10-15 minutes or until the galuskas float on the surface for 2-3 minutes.
  • Drain them and serve them hot.

Notes

Optional seasoning:
  • Turmeric - it makes the dough even more delicious and a golden color.
  • Spinach - it makes the dough healthier, is a great way to eat your greens, and adds gorgeous color.
  • Basil - it adds the dough an aromatic, fresh taste.
  • Chive - just like basil, it adds a wonderful and fresh taste to the dough.
