Hungarian
Goulash - Puszta Pörkölt
In
modern cuisine we tend to refer to all Hungarian stews
as 'goulash'. However the Hungarians are careful to
make distinctions to the various forms. The meats for
all but the paprikas, should be cut quite large (4cm
dice) and can be made with mutton, lamb, beef or chicken.
Being a Welshman in New Zealand I of course recommend
mutton or lamb:
Gulya |
A
'ragout' that is cooked until all the liquid has
evaporated |
Gulya
leves |
As
above but with water added to form a soup |
Pörkölt |
Translates
as 'roasted'. It has a rich, thick, reduced red
sauce that
corresponds to the 'goulash' |
Tokany |
Related
to the pörkölt, but has marjoram and black
pepper in place of the
paprika |
Paprikas |
Similar
to the pörkölt, but the meat or fish is
cut into small pieces and the
sauce refined with sweet or sour cream |

How

the paprika and mutton, stir to combine, turn up heat
slightly to brown the meat

200 ml of stock and the sliced garlic cloves

with a lid and simmer the gently simmer the pörkölt;
do not boil the meat, it should almost fry (add a
little more stock as required)
- When
the mutton is three-quarters cooked add the roughly
chopped tomatoes and wine continue cooking without
a lid until the meat is almost cooked and the other
ingredients have reduced down until almost dry and
to a sauce consistency

Enjoy
