Ingredients




1 package (16 ounce) egg noodles
3 1/2 slices maple smoked bacon
2 cups sour cream (full fat works best- better if you can find Hungarian sour cream)
1 container (12 ounce) cheese curds
salt to taste

Preparation

1 Cook noodles according to package directions, making sure to add salt. 2 While noodles are cooking, cook and crumble bacon - I use the toaster oven, but a pan works fine too.  Microwave not recommended. 3 Drain noodles and put into a casserole dish.  Mix 2 c sour cream with noodles.  You can mix in a bowl if desired, but using just the casserole dish means one less dish to clean! 4 Top with cheese curds and bacon. 5 Bake at 350 F until curds melt and dish begins to brown slightly.  Approximately 10-15 minutes, but keep an eye on it. 6 Remove, serve with salad and crusty bread, and enjoy!

About


This is a traditional pasta dish in Hungary, and is best made with Hungarian dairy products, which can be difficult to find in American super markets. Some recipes say to mix noodles with butter then TOP with sour cream.
