    Preparation Steps

    1

    Finely chop the onions and garlic. In a large pan, heat the oil and sauté the onions until translucent.

    2

    Add the chopped garlic, then stir in the Hungarian sweet paprika. Immediately add the ground pork to prevent the paprika from burning.

    3

    Brown the meat for 5-6 minutes, until it turns pale. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then pour in 200 ml of water. Simmer over low heat for 20-25 minutes, or until the meat is completely tender.

    4

    Meanwhile, prepare the dumplings: in a bowl, mix together the flour, eggs, and a pinch of salt and a little water. Stir until you have a thick but smooth batter.

    5

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Using a dumpling slicer or spoon, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the boiling water. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the dumplings float to the surface. Drain and rinse with cold water.

    6

    To serve, spoon the dumplings onto plates, top with the pörkölt, and drizzle with a dollop of sour cream. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
