An Unusual Version Of Hungarian Fisherman’s Stew

It’s always nice to see people tackling new ways of preparing a traditional dish. Get Fit With Mindy has decided to take on Halaszle which is a famous Hungarian Fisherman’s Stew and possibly the country’s most famous fish dish.

I like what she’s done with this and it’s a very healthy meal to prepare for a young family with growing kids.

Fish is really healthy. Do you eat enough?


Traditional Hungarian Goulash Soup

Hungarians love their goulash so much that they don’t just eat is a stew, they also make a soupy variant and it’s every bit as delicious as the thicker stew and much better suited to Autumn/Spring eating as it’s a little lighter on the palate.

I really enjoyed making my first batch of goulash soup and I thought this recipe was unique and delicious.
