Pork Goulash



Ingredients:
  • 1 pound of pork neck (cubed) - you may use any pork lean meats, I like pork neck as it's tenderer and no doubt a tad fattier :)
  • 1 can of peeled tomatoes
  • 1 small red Spanish onion OR half of the big one (thinly sliced)
  • 2 garlic cloves (finely chopped)
  • 1 red bell-pepper (sliced) - ideally, use half yellow and half red to add contrast to the dish
  • 1 red chili-pepper (deseeded and finely chopped)
  • 1 stalk of fresh Parsley (chopped)
  • a dollop of sour cream
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil


Marinade:
  • 0.5 tsp of salt
  • 0.5 tsp of ground black pepper


Seasoning:
  • 2 tbsp of Worcesteshire sauce
  • 1 tsp of Italian herbs
  • 0.5 tsp of Cayenne pepper
  • 0.25 tsp of cumin
  • 1 tsp of salt


How to:
  • marinate your pork cubes and let them sit for 10 mins
  • heat the olive oil under medium fire (~1 min). Add in the marinated pork cubes and stir-fry for 6-10 mins to press out the essence and fat. Remove the pork cubes from the pot
  • add in onion, garlic, and chili-pepper. Stir-fry till fragrant (~1 min)
  • add in bell-pepper, tomatoes, and cooked pork cubes. Stir-fry for another 1 min
  • add 1 cup of water - I use the can of the peeled tomatoes, about half of the can OR just enough to cover the meat
  • add in the seasoning and simmer for 45 min - 1 hr
  • prior to serving, stir in the chopped Parsley
  • and serve with a dollop of sour cream
