My Italian girlfriend cooked a dish to represent Hungarian cuisine. She used tarhonya, tomato sauce and meatballs. How did she do?

what is this tough?

There’s no such Hungarian food. Kudos for the effort, though.
It’s a slightly weird combination of the ingredients but I’d probably devour it.
Szombat van?
Tell her last night I represented Italian cuisine by baking a pizza with a Lidl ketchup base, and put pinapples and american cheese on top.
Meatballs and tomato souce are a thing, but it is usually served with diced / mashed potatos on the side, like this: [https://static.streetkitchen.hu/live/uploads/2019/03/paradicsomos-husgomboc-burgonyaval-kozepes.jpg](https://static.streetkitchen.hu/live/uploads/2019/03/paradicsomos-husgomboc-burgonyaval-kozepes.jpg)

Seeing tarhonya here is very weird, but probably tastes okay 🙂
We usually eat tarhonya with stews.
Never seen any dish like this in Hungarian cuisine, but it honestly doesnt sound too bad, I would try it.
Seems like hungarian and italian fusion.
Kinda same like risoni w meatballs
Not really hungarian, mildly r/shittyfoodporn but i’d eat that. Heck I ate worse in restaurants.
Seems like a fair revenge for carbonara with cream.
It doesn’t seem to be any hungarian dish but sound good.
Looks tasty, but not hungarian.
Absolutely not how you should use these ingredients, but unlike other such dishes posted here, this one actually sounds pretty good I’ll give her that
any other dishes are just randomly made up wartime foods too, so it should as well be one day a Hungarian dish. Paradicsomos tarhonya ársapkában tálalva
It could have been much worse, so congratulations for it.
This seems like my classic “shit in my fridge about to expire” menu
Yes, it’s not a typical Hungarian dish or is close to anything that we traditionally have here, but I’d eat it in a heartbeat.
It kinda does look more like an Italian and Hungarian dish fusion as others mentioned. I don’t get the amount of negativity in the comments, yes, it’s weird, but who tf cares, it probably taste good.
Kudos to your girlfriend for finding Hungarian cuisine interesting enough to experiment with it. We have a great selection of flavours, hope she will try out a bit more in the future. Don’t let these gatekeeper-ish comments discourage her.
She forgot to throw sour cream in the mix!
she fooled you, this is 100% Italian cuisine
Pedig nincs is még hónap vége 😂
What kind of heresy is this???
Seems like a combination of two dishes at least. Tomato sauce and meatballs do go together, although they’d be either served with diced potato, or stuffed into one vegetable or an other.
Tarhonya is more commonly used for stews, and as far as I know not mixed into the sauce usually.
But that’s not that important, if she had fun cooking it and enjoyed eating the meal, then it’s all good.
I’m pretty sure this tastes nice, not something super authentic, but it is a good start 🙂 We would deserve something much worse from an Italian considering our monstrous creation of milánói sertésborda
Not really hungarian, waaaay too saucy for that.
I’d eat it though, doesn’t look bad.
Technically it’s a combination of Hungarian foods, great job! Add some Túró rudi for more authenticity!
I will use spaghetti and ketchup to represent the Italian cuisine.
Műanyag tányérban, fehér háromszög tálcán, 1996-ban, általánosikola menzáján a helyét megállná. Szinte érzem az ultrás ipari pléh edény szagot és a konyhás nénik fenyegetően gondoskdó auráját.
7/10.
To be honest, I could definitely see this one being a real Hungarian food (even though it isn’t), the ingredients and style check out.

She cooked it with love, so no problem. It is not a hungarian dish, but I think, its taste was good.
Ah, my favourite dish, moslék.
Which part of the Hungarian cuisine she want to represent? The dissapointment?
not casus belli worthy like the austrian goulash in a box, so it ok
This looks like an AI generated hungarian dish, but hell, id fkn eat that.
Ez most hadüzenet?
