PASTA WITH COTTAGE CHEESE


INGREDIENTS

12 oz egg noodles
1/4 pound slab bacon, or breakfast bacon, cut in 1/4 in slices
1 cup sour cream
3 tbs buttermilk
8 oz small curd cottage cheese
black pepper to taste
2 tbsp fresh dill (optional)

Cook noodles per package directtions. Meanwhile fry the bacon until tender. Scrape bacon and fat into a bowl. Add the cooked noodles and mix thoroughly. Thin the sour cream with the buttermilk, and fold it into the noodles and bacon. Mix in the cheese until it breaks up. Ideally, slab bacon is better and can be purchased in a Hungarian specialty store. Sprinkle with pepper and dill and serve immediately.
