My Best Hungarian Tomato Soup Recipe-Timea's Kitchen (2025)

This Hungarian tomato soup made in my style, without onions but with drop noodles, is delicious, comforting and filling. It is a worthwhile option for those who love tomato soup because it is easy to make and cooks quickly.

We find many recipes for tomato soups in the universal kitchen, from those consumed cold, such as gazpacho in Spain, to hot ones. The hot ones can be cooked with vegetables or meat, from baked tomatoes or tomato concentrate, cream soups containing pasta, and I can continue the list.

This easy tomato soup recipe I will make today is simple, contains only a few ingredients and is ready in just twenty minutes.

Ingredients

I will use only a few ingredients to get three servings: a 1/2 l of tomato passata, 2 tbsp tomato paste and 700 ml of water.

For roux, I need two tablespoons of oil, one tablespoon, and a half of wheat flour; for poured noodles, I will use an egg and two tablespoons of flour.

How to Make the Hungarian Tomato Soup?

To make this Hungarian tomato soup, I will go through the following steps: I will first make a roux; over this, I will put the soup ingredients and the water that I bring to the boiling temperature and in which I will pour drop noodles.

Make a Roux

I heat two tablespoons of sunflower oil in a pot and fry a tablespoon and a half of flour. Continuously mix with a wooden spoon until the flour dissolves in oil and forms a paste, taking care not to burn or take on colour.

In this recipe, I want the roux to remain white; I don’t want the taste to dominate in the soup.

Over the roux, add the tomato paste and puree, stirring to blend the ingredients.

Boil the Soup

Pour the 700 ml of water to dilute the soup, and season with a teaspoon of sea salt, a tablespoon of sugar for a sweeter taste and two teaspoons of a vegetable mix for soups.

Boil the soup for about five minutes, during which time we make the poured noodles.

Make the Poured Noodles

Poured noodles are thin batter made of eggs and flour with a bit of water, which we will slowly pour into the tomato soup. I will mix one egg with two tablespoons of flour in a bowl until I get a homogeneous paste.

I added a tablespoon of water to the composition so that this composition was more fluid than I could pour into the soup in a thin thread.

Finishing the Soup

Reduce the temperature so the soup boils slightly over low heat, and slowly pour the whole batter, stirring lightly.

Let it boil for another five minutes, during which time the batter will cook and increase in volume, taking irregular shapes and forming small noodles.

Serving the Soup

I recommend serving hot tomato soup with a tablespoon of sour cream and possibly chopped chives on top; it gives it an extra flavour. Usually, children prefer the sweeter version, and then you can add another tablespoon of sugar; you will see that they will be delighted.
