    Preparation Steps

    1

    Cut the pork into bite-sized cubes. Finely chop the onions and crush the garlic.

    2

    In a large pot, heat the oil or lard over medium heat. Sauté the onions until translucent.

    3

    Add the Hungarian Sweet Paprika, stir quickly, and immediately pour in a little water to prevent it from burning.

    4

    Add the pork to the pot and brown on all sides. Season with salt, pepper, and ground caraway seeds.

    5

    Add the chopped tomato and bell pepper. Stir to combine, then add water.

    6

    Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the pork is very tender. Add more water as needed to prevent the stew from drying out.

    7

    Before serving, check the seasoning and add more salt or pepper if needed. Serve with boiled potatoes, dumplings (galuska), or fresh bread.
