Green pea goulash stew
Green pea goulash (borsópörkölt) is a very popular dish in Hungary, particularly for children. We eat it with dumplings (galuska) but it’s very nice served with pasta or rice. This version is very easy to make, perfect for mid-week supper.
Ingredients
Method
- Heat the oil in a saucepan, add the onion. When it’s translucent, add the garlic and stir for a minute.
- Add the peas, then pour over a little water to cover them, then sprinkle with paprika and sugar. Sauté under cover for about 5 minutes.
- Add more water if the sauce is getting too sticky – but the stew shouldn’t be thin. Cook for 10-15 minutes until the peas are tender and the paprika-sauce is thick.
- Season with salt and pepper.
