Paprikás Krumpli is a true Hungarian classic, a symbol of home-style, delicious meals. This dish is simple to prepare yet incredibly mouth-watering. The base of paprikás krumpli is potatoes, cooked in a spicy pörkölt (stew) sauce with onions, Hungarian sweet paprika, and a pinch of garlic. The flavors of the pörkölt and the rich texture of the potatoes together create a dish that always comforts.
The dish typically comes from the Hungarian countryside, where it is prepared in many variations. You can add sausage, ham, or even eggs to make it even more filling. Paprikás krumpli is always a good choice for a day when you crave a light but rich taste experience.
