    Preparation Steps

    1

    Finely chop the onions and sauté them in a large pot with the lard until translucent. Add the crushed garlic and sauté briefly.

    2

    Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the Hungarian sweet paprika, being careful not to burn it. Immediately add the diced tomatoes and bell pepper, then mix well.

    3

    Add the cubed veal and mix thoroughly to coat all sides with the seasoned base.

    4

    Season with salt, pepper, and ground caraway seeds. Pour in the water and simmer over low heat for 1.5-2 hours, or until the meat is completely tender.

    5

    Stir occasionally and add more water if necessary to prevent burning. Adjust the seasoning to taste at the end.

    6

    Serve the veal stew with fresh bread, boiled potatoes, or dumplings (galuska), and offer pickles on the side.
