Day 13, Pork and Paprika Stew

Yesterday I was thinking of a dish that is easy to prepare and not too much fuss since I was not really feeling that well after a night out with work colleagues.  Since I had all the ingredients needed to make a Pork Paprika Stew, I went with that instead.

PORK AND PAPRIKA STEW

2         tbs          oil
100     grams     bacon, cubed
2         pieces    onions, cubed
1         tbs          flour
about  1 kilo      pork, cubed
2         tsp          smoked paprika powder
2         cups       red wine
3         cups       chicken broth
2-3      pieces    paprika (cubed)
3         pieces    carrots, peeled and sliced
2-3      pieces    small red chillies
salt and pepper to taste

Heat oil in a casserole to medium heat, add the bacon and sear the pork until their done.  Then add the chopped onions, chicken broth and red wine.  Let it slow cook covered for about 30 minutes.  Then add the paprika, salt and pepper, paprika powder, carrots and chillies.  Let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until the pork meat is tender.

Serve the stew on top of a steamed rice, cooked macaroni, or cooked potatoes.
