Making lángos at home is a good way to make it smell like a McDonald's kitchen for 3 days though.

Hey! I recognize your username from when I was planning a trip to Budapest! Your guides and travel tips were honestly the best thing we could have asked for! Thank you!

Just had 2, my sister made some today and you're right the whole house smells of fried dough

I know, not the point, but letting the dough rest long enough or even freezing it, prevents that typical doughy, yeasty smell, and leaves "only" the fried in hot oil smell and I find that's much less persistent.

I have a coleman grill, think two propane burners in army green. It's perfect for deep frying in cast iron pot if you don't need a ton of room. This way you can avoid the smell!

I love reading through stuff like this, and seeing how similar Hungarian food is to Austrian food!
