Pure refined carbohydrate deep-fried in cooking oil, served with fat on top? That's just amazing comfort food combo.
4450 Ft for a Lángos is just a robbery...
Seriously! Should be half that unless you are gouging tourists, which I guess is the point of Caravan Market so...
It consists of flour, water, yeast and oil for the baking.
Circa 15ft when made it home. With garlic and salt plus...
Yesterday evening I ate 4 "langos" for 60 HUF... 15 CENT... :-)

In Hungary, lángos is a typical beach dish. It was very cheap and had nothing on it. Today it is cheap only in the markets, 600 HUF, 1.3 EUR, but tourists do not get to the market very much. They buy it expensively and put all sorts of things on the langos. I'm Hungarian and I won't let you put anything on it, because it's the most delicious.
Thank you for writing this. That is how I remember Langos. Only salt or garlic was available in 1983 when I was there.
There is no sea in hungary. Beaches LoL😂😂😂
@@user-ul9is6nn1v there are lakes, like Balaton... then warm thermal lakes .
@@herrkulor3771 yes a lot of garlic🤤
Same! Brush with garlic, maybe a little salt and give me my snack.
It reminds me of pastel, a brazilian savory snack. It’s made of deep fried dough stuffed with (mainly) cheese and ground beef. Also a very popular street food.
This is really popular in the Christmas markets in Vienna, it is really good in the cold weather
In Italy we also have this. We call it pizza fritta, fried pizza. Somewhere they call it montanara. We usually put tomato, Parmigiano and basil on it. But there are also more gourmet versions.
also this is basically a Chinese donut, proof fried dough is just the best food
Exactly fried dough sprinkle raw sugar or powder sugar or sauce on it. Italian mom always made it for us
@dominicdavino252 the version with sugar is actually a remote memory of my early childhood. Haven't seen any in the last decades.
I would consider Langos more as a snack and pizza as food.
To me Langos is without topping, only salt or garlic rub.
The hybrid Langos with topping is of course more inbetween.
Thank you for the great video about why langos is the most popular street food in Hungary 👍
In New Brunswick, New jersey, they have a Hungarian festival every year. They make Langos and other Hungarian foods.
Beautiful!
Cool! I had something like this in Sweden and they had shrimps and caviar on top of the cheese and sour cream!
Looks good. I would love to try it.
My fast Langos was on the streets of Bratislava. It was amazing. I have had it in Budapest and Vienna, and even once in London. My mother in law makes it whenever we are around?
Hey Langos, why did you try to steal my wallet when I was in Hungary? Very greasy of you I must say....
😮👌😂
So funny 😂
Don't go to tourists traps
Langos is for 3am. Best eaten when staggering home from the bar. The grease soaks up the extra alcohol.
I had Langos for lunch at a rock festival 8 years ago, that was my first time (maybe only this far) having Langos. I really liked it! There's Langos trucks coming to my town from time to time, but I haven't had the chance to go when they're here. Hopefully I'll have the chance to this summer. I prefer Langos with garlic, sour cream, cheese and red onion on top. When it comes to preference between pizza or langos, it's really down to what I want that particular day, both are really good in their own way. That said, I consider langos more fit for lunch, and pizza can be lunch or dinner as pizza feels more like a complete meal
Both looking delicious.. Langos would be a nice experience for me.. Coz I ate pizza so many times😂😂😂😂
The only time I have had langos was at a Christmas market in Berlin. It was fantastic!
One of my fav streetfood! 🙂(Best one: sourcream, cheese and garlic) Beach - Lángos - Beer 🤘
You can make fuchka with cream cheese onion chicken as filling . It's crunchy and if you can make the delicious filling it'll be a great treat . Use tamarind sweet sauce for dipping 😋
I need to try Langos one day! This looks like Beavertails ( a Canadian variant), but I'm not from Canada so never tried it!
oh delicious. nice to meet Langos XD
In Canada we have beavertails very similar instead of a circle their in an oval, and Instead of savory, we have them sweet. I like them best with melted butter cinnamon sugar and a splash of lemon juice.
I had the one with cream and cheese once in Poland. It was good, but messy to eat ofc, lol! Kinda reminds me of Khatchapuri actually from Georgia.
Very similar to vetkoek in South Africa where the filling is just stuffed in the middle.
We call this Indian fry bread in America. You can even make a Indian Taco with the fry bread . Usually it would be cooked in animal fat
In Canada, we call them Beaver Tails. They tend to be sweeter, but savoury is also on the menu!
how is it all hawker stall and bakery in hungary?
It looks like a giant "pettola" imo, I'd love to try it :) maybe with "u zip-zip" as topping as well (ciliegini tomatoes pan fried a little with chili peppers)
Similar to Navajo fry bread. You just need to ditch the sour cream and have a grandma slap the dough around for a while before throwing it in a vat of lard. Serve it with honey, powdered sugar, or make it into a taco!
Lángos or Pizza! Both of them! :) Lángos for breakfast and pizza for lunch!
I love sour cream and paprika. I think I'd eat well in Hungary.
This looks like Lakota fry bread…with different topings
frying bread, can't lose no matter where you're at on this rock.
Szeretem a langos
But there is a pizza with deep fried dough like this... it's called Pizza Fritta
Beaver tails- Canada’s answer to Langos.
Very popular in Central Asia, usually with minced meat, onions…
А что там делает Музыченко?
i tried this in Hungary years ago and to be honest it's taste like chinese donut with topping
You left out an important point. The cheese can't be just any kind. It has to be Trappista cheese!
What's up with the weird self-narration?
it feel like a channel for children
I guess they thought it was a creative way of "introducing" the cuisine 😅🤷♂️
❤❤❤❤🥰🥰👍👍
It's like "montanara"
Mekitsa or Tiganitsa in Macedonia. It is the same thing but we eat it with white cottage cheese or with sugar.
It is mandatory to treat everyone with Mekitsas on the day you get a newborn baby.
lol. Mekitsa is bulgarian. I mean u are bulgarian as well so makes sense :)
@@mybrokipp I don't look like genghis khan
@@ProfesorTutu lol kiddo, so does every bulgarian. HAve u ever visited your homeland or just talking fantasies ? Tell me what is the language that u speak ? Frow what linguistical family is it ? Cause it literally sounds like a bulgarian dialect. My grandparents from the south speak the same . Tell me how come u dont' speak in your own language like the neighbouring Greece , Serbia or Albania ???? Where is your language from the time of Alexander the great ??? Like this is funny and sad at the same time. , and talking about Gengis Khan, how uneducated can one be...No wonder so easy to manipulate.We are the same people and have been for centuries.
@@ProfesorTutu quote from reddit " I am an old man, an Orthodox Christian American descendant of Slavic Macedonians, who have identified themselves as Bulgarians from Ohrid (North Macedonia) and from Florina (Lerin), in Greek (Aegean) Macedonia. My relatives were born between the 1860’s and 1920’s, and ALL of them have viewed themselves as ethnic Bulgarians or Macedonian Bulgarians. Some of them have been active IMARO (VMRO) members, who have fought for the unification of all ethnic Bulgarians from the Balkan subregions of Macedonia, Thrace, and Moesia into a single Bulgarian NATION-STATE. The modern “Macedonian” ethnos and language were created between the early 1930’s and late 1940’s as the implementation of a plan of Stalin’s Comintern and Tito’s Yugoslav communists to dismember the Bulgarian people. On Stalin’s orders, the communists of Yugoslavia and Bulgaria converted the Macedonian Bulgarians into Macedonian “Macedonians.” Best wishes to all TRUTH lovers and people who respect the heritage of the Macedonian BULGARIANS!

@@mybrokipp ok man
I vote for langos. To me it is better.❤❤❤
Thomaskám, az egy dolog hogy külföldiek Budapesztnek nevezik jobb sorsra érdemes fővárosunkat, de nem érzed mennyire gáz amikor magyarként Bjúdapesztnek mondod? Pláne hogy a bódéd nevében is szerepel…
That's will good sell in Hong Kong
A consider Lángos a snack and I eat it toped with sugar or with jam.
Don't compare langos to pizza. It's stupid. It's like comparing hot dogs and sub sandwiches
Most komolyan a pizzához hasonlítják a lángosunkat? Akkor a palacsintát hasonlíthatjuk a tortillához? Vagy mi?
Nice video, but I don't understand why the commentator speaks from the perspective of the food hahah
Lángos is the best fast food snack in the world
the first-person narration gimmick was a massive miss
Looks even fattening. I like pizza more.
When your food talks to you 🙄😲
Vine a ver ese platillo húngaro y me chuté todo el video-anuncio de "Alan x el Mundo"
A talking lángos or a silent pizza?
I thought there always where a bit of boiled potatoes in the dough.🤓
that’s potato lángos. it is a little different
That is Native American. "Fry Bread" look at the history of it. It's all they were given when herded into reservations
Simple and delicious! It seems a bit like fry bread in the sw usa...
pizza, but Flórián tér sells really good langos
Whole Karavan place is a tourist ripoff.
나는 이 영상을 보고 이탈리아로 가기로 결정했습니다.
Its party food
Langos
It's like pizza, only better. There, I said it.
When I ate it in Budapest, honestly it wasnt that great, it is a mess to eat and it is so oily therefore completely unbalanced
：００
Indian Naan topped with the same ingredients will taste better, also would be healthy
This reminds me more of a Puri with toppings
Indian food 🤮🤮🤮
Stay in India 😂
you are a chihuahua
Bland diet
Does this thing costs almost 12 EUR??? FML!
no it doesn’t. only at the very touristic places. normally we buy it 1,5-5 EUR
It's laughable, when people show lángos with toppings, other than what should be on there- namely, garlic "sauce", sour cream, cheese. NOTHING ELSE, goes on a real lángos!
As a midwestern American, I would say pizza.
Hungry Hungarian in Hungary
Absolutely hate this country, my worst experience ever so far , people not welcome and rude
To the tourists, bad service , spelt a lot of money there , honestly.. I felt bad while being there .. my recommendation don’t visit this country
Its just fried bread...
said by someone who never tried it
are the Hungarians in Hungary hungry?!!
Yep, and hangry if no Lángos available...
how nice you can already write at age 6. Maybe you want to learn some other VERY GOOD jokes: like if you are Hungry for Turkey. Fools. Have you noticed that your country US of America is named after a guy called Emerich? (Amerigo Vespucci) hahahaha so funny, your country got the first name of this guy? Now go to bed, it is too late.
Wheat flour deep fried in oil with high fat content sour cream and cheese. No thanks. Napoletana pizza any time.
To me this is completely inedible, full of oil...
It's a no from me. ❤
Sour cream and cheese on top?🤮🤮🤮🤮
plus a little salt and garlic
Sounds absolutely disgusting.
@@luv.stnnvr Yes u are correct. I have never tried it. Bread cooked in hot oil? Sour cream? Each of those aspects are a huge turn off in taste and turn off in healthy eating. I don't want to try it ever cuz it sounds disgusting.
@@luv.stnnvr I am incorrect? How am I incorrect when I say sour cream tastes disgusting to me? How am I incorrect when I say fried batter or fried dough tastes disgusting to me? Also, the idea of those 2 things being so unhealthy is disgusting to me. How would u know I am incorrect? Can u read my mind? hahah
"Everyone else said it's delicious" how does that matter to me lol? Indonesia says bat soup is delicious. Scottish eat Haggis. Australians love vegemite. Just because one country loves a food item that doesn't mean I love it.
Mexicans love spicy food. Do u?
@@luv.stnnvr How am I incorrect? Do u not realize how silly u are being? Just because I have never tried langos before that doesn't mean I will like it because I already told u I don't like the ingredients of langos. I have tried sour cream many times before. I hate it. I hate sour tasting foods. I have tried fried dough / batter before. I hate it. I don't even like cheese that much because it has so much fat. U automatically assume everyone in this world likes sour cream and fatty food. Not everyone has the same taste profiles in this world 🤣.
@@AL.BUNDY.
@@luv.stnnvrThere are many things that I have not eaten that I do not want to try. I do not eat fried food of any sort, so I know that this would not be acceptable to me. Surprisingly, there are many different people who all have different likes and dislikes.
