  • 2 pounds boiling potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons lard
  • 2/3 cup finely chopped onions
  • ¼ teaspoon finely chopped garlic
  • 1 tablespoon sweet Hungarian paprika
  • 2 cups chicken or beef stock, fresh or canned, or 2 cups water
  • 1/8 teaspoon caraway seeds
  • 1 medium-sized tomato, peeled, seeded and chopped (about ¼ cup)
  • 1 large green pepper with seeds and ribs removed, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pound Hungarian sausage
  • ½ cup sour cream

  • How To Cook:
    1. Cook the potatoes in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes, then peel and cut into ¼-inch slices. In a 4-quart saucepan or casserole, heat the lard until a light haze forms over it, then add the onions and garlic.

    2. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until lightly colored. Off the heat, stir in paprika. Stir until the onions are well coated.

    3. Return the pan to the heat, add stock or water, bring to a boil, and add caraway seeds, potatoes, tomato, green pepper, salt and a few grindings of pepper.

    4. Bring the liquid to a boil, stir, cover and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes until the potatoes are tender.

    NOTE:
        The addition of "Debreceni" or another semisoft smoked sausage to potato paprika makes the dish a complete meal. Slice the sausage about 1/8 inch thick and add it when you add the potatoes.
        Serve in a casserole as a vegetable or entree for a luncheon dish. Top each portion with a tablespoon of sour cream.
