🧑‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Cook the noodles:
   • Boil the egg noodles in salted water according to the package instructions.
   • Drain and set aside.
2. Caramelize the cabbage:

   • Add the chopped onion (if using) and sauté until soft and golden.
   • Add the shredded cabbage, salt, and pepper.
   • Stir frequently and cook over medium heat until cabbage softens and starts to brown slightly (about 20–25 minutes).

3. Combine:
   • Add the cooked noodles to the cabbage.
   • Toss everything together, adjust salt and pepper if needed.

🔁 Variations:

• Some like it sweeter and add more sugar.
• Others enjoy a dash of vinegar or a spoon of sour cream on top.
• You can also brown the cabbage more deeply for a nuttier flavor.

This humble yet flavorful dish is a Hungarian classic, especially beloved during Lent or as a comforting side or main. Let me know if you’d like a version with bacon or smoked sausage added! 🇭🇺🥰
