Kapustové halušky

Strapačky (Slovak) or sztrapacska (Hungarian) is a dish popular in Slovakia and Hungary.

It is similar to bryndzové halušky where the base compound of the dish is halušky (dumplings); however, in Slovakia, instead of bryndza, stewed sauerkraut is used.

[1] In Hungary, sztrapacska is traditionally accompanied with juhtúró, the local equivalent to bryndza.

Residents of Vanyarc, located in Hungary approximately 80 kilometers from Budapest, have held a Festival of Strapačky (Vanyarci Haluskafesztivál) every September for almost 40 years.

Ethnic Slovaks from all over Hungary compete for prizes at the festival.
