halušky
Halušky are traditional Slovak dumplings made from a simple mixture of flour, water, and sometimes eggs. They are typically small and round, resembling gnocchi, and are often served as a side dish or main course. Halušky can be enjoyed with various toppings, including cheese, bacon, or sauerkraut, making them a versatile dish in Slovak cuisine.
One of the most popular variations is bryndzové halušky, which features a creamy sheep cheese called bryndza. This dish is considered a national specialty in Slovakia and is often garnished with crispy bacon bits. Halušky are beloved for their comforting texture and rich flavors.
