🇭🇺 Hungary recipe
Lecsó
Lecsó is Hungary's answer to ratatouille, a simple yet deeply satisfying stew of sweet peppers and ripe tomatoes gently cooked down with onions and seasoned with the country's signature sweet paprika. It can be served as a vegetarian main, a side dish, or enriched with eggs, sausage, or rice for a heartier meal.
