About the dish

Vadas marha is a traditional dish originating from Hungary. The dish is made with a combination of sliced beef and vadas, a creamy sauce consisting of carrots, onions, parsnip, bay leaves, black pepper, and sour cream. The preparation of the dish takes a long time because the beef first needs to be cooked with the vegetables and spices for 3 hours and is marinated for 24 hours. After that, the meat is separated and cut into thick slices, and the rest of the marinade is used as a basis for the vadas sauce. Vadas marha is often served with bread dumplings on the side.
