Megpirítják

Megpirítják is a Hungarian verb form meaning they brown or fry something until browned. It is derived from the verb pirít, which means to fry or brown lightly, with the perfective prefix meg- that indicates a completed action. The form megpirítják is the third-person plural present indicative, used when the subject is plural and the action is described in the present context.

Related forms include megpirítom (I brown), megpirítasz (you brown), megpirítja (he/she/it browns), megpirítjuk (we brown), and megpirítjátok (you all brown). The prefix meg- together with pirít signals that the browning step is performed as a single, completed part of a cooking process.

Usage in cooking contexts is common, where megpirítják describes browning meat, vegetables, or other ingredients in a skillet as a preparatory step before further cooking. Example: A húsokat megpirítják a serpenyőben, majd hozzáadják a hagymát. The term emphasizes the browning stage rather than a light sauté, and it is frequently used in recipes and culinary instructions.
