The main ingredient of Hungarian cuisine is paprika, but love is also an essential one which cannot be missing from any meal. Apart from Hungarians, many foreigners also love Hungarian dishes because they are delicious and warm up our souls every time we eat them. While you stay at home and help the whole world to stop the coronavirus epidemic, nothing can stop you from making your favourite Hungarian meal in your kitchen. Here are the top ten picks and the recipes to start the magic. 

Magyarországom collected these top Hungarian meals which are the most famous and iconic ones, giving Hungary its main brand and reputation for its gastronomy. 

Fruit soup

Usually made with sour cherry, this cold soup is the favourite meal of every Hungarian during the warm summer days, and it is the best if we add Hungarian fruits to it. This meal can be served as an appetiser and dessert as well, with sour cream, cream, or even some wine.

Stuffed cabbage

Meat, rice, and spices stuffed into the perfect Hungarian cabbage. This meal takes us back to our grandmother’s house, and them to their grandparents’, as the recipe was passed down from one generation to another. Although it is a typical winter meal, if you would like to eat it during other seasons, why not?
