PORK PAPRIKASH
Tender cubes of pork tenderloin make this satisfying Hungarian-style dish easy enough to make on a weeknight. Two kinds of paprika-sweet and smoked-gives the sauce extra depth of flavor, while a bit of cayenne lends a subtle kick of heat. Make this a meal by serving it over egg noodles or pappardelle, topped with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkling of fresh dill.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- In a large deep skillet or Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of the canola oil until shimmering. Add half of the pork and season with salt and pepper. Cook over high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly browned but not cooked through, about 5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining pork.
- Spoon off the fat from the skillet or Dutch oven, then melt the butter in the remaining 2 tablespoons of canola oil. Add the onion, garlic and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in both paprikas and the cayenne, then stir in the flour and cook until fragrant and the mixture starts to stick to the bottom, about 1 minute.
- Gradually stir or whisk in the broth and tomatoes until incorporated. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the sauce is bubbling and slightly thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, add the noodles or pappardelle to the boiling water and cook as the label directs; drain.
- Nestle the pork in the sauce and cook, stirring gently, until the pork is just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the 1/4 cup of sour cream. Serve over the cooked noodles or pappardelle, topped with sour cream and dill sprigs.

PORKOLT (HUNGARIAN STEW) MADE WITH PORK
A flavorful stew, Pörkölt is redolent with the fragrance of paprika and bell peppers. It has few ingredients, and is surprisingly easy to make. Save time by using boneless pork chops and cubing them after they are browned. There should be enough salt in the canned tomatoes to season the stew, but if not, add more to your taste. Use best-quality, real Hungarian paprika for best results. We prefer to serve it with noodles, but galuska (Hungarian dumplings) or rice are good, too.

Steps:
- Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain, and reserve the drippings. Add the onions to the bacon and cook together until the onion is translucent. Remove skillet from heat and stir the paprika, garlic powder, and pepper into the bacon mixture. Transfer the mixture into a large stockpot.
- Heat a small amount of the reserved bacon drippings in the skillet again over medium-high heat. Cook the pork chops in batches in the hot drippings until evenly browned on both sides. Use additional bacon drippings for each batch as needed. Remove the pork chops to a cutting board and blot excess fat off the surface of the chops with a paper towel; cut into bite-sized cubes and stir into the bacon mixture.
- Heat a small amount of the bacon drippings in the skillet; cook and stir the bell pepper in the hot drippings until softened and fragrant; drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Stir the cooked pepper into the bacon mixture.
- Pour the tomatoes with liquid and beef broth into a stockpot and place the pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until the stew begins to thicken, stirring occasionally, about 90 minutes. Stir the sour cream into the stew just before serving.
- Bring a pot with lightly-salted water and bring to a rolling boil; add the egg noodles to the water and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 5 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink. Ladle the stew over the drained noodles to serve.

Tips:
- Choose the right pork: For this stew, it's best to use a pork shoulder or pork butt. These cuts are tough, but they become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly in a stew.
- Brown the pork before stewing: Browning the pork before adding it to the stew gives it a nice color and helps to develop its flavor.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for carrots, celery, and onion, but you can also add other vegetables that you like, such as potatoes, green beans, or corn.
- Use a good-quality paprika: Paprika is the key ingredient in this stew, so be sure to use a good-quality brand. Hungarian paprika is a good choice.
- Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour: The longer you simmer the stew, the more flavorful it will be. Aim to simmer it for at least 1 hour, or up to 2 hours if you have the time.
- Serve the stew over mashed potatoes or rice: Paprika pork stew is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. Serve it over mashed potatoes or rice to soak up all of the delicious sauce.
