North Croatian Pork And Sauerkraut Stew Sekeli Gulash Recipes

Steps:

• Cut pork meat into small pieces.
• Finely slice onion and sauté it on lard until soft. Add meat and continue to sauté it until meat starts to change color.
• Add paprika and mix. Add some wine and continue to sauté it.
• After 10 to 15 minutes add sauerkraut (sliced), bay leaf, caraway seeds and more wine. Add water and brine (only if you like it really sour).
• Cook 30 to 40 minutes on low fire. After 20 minutes add flour (just one teaspon if you want thicker stew) and mix well. Continue to cook until sauerkraut is soft.
• Before serving add sour cream and mix.

Steps:

• Melt together the butter and olive oil in a heavy pot (one with a lid) and sauté the pork cubes and bacon until lightly browned.
• Add the onion, green and red bell peppers, mushrooms, and paprika.
• Sauté until vegetables have softened just beyond crisp and add the bay leaf, chicken stock, tomatoes, sauerkraut, and caraway seeds.
• Cover and simmer over medium low heat for 1 hour or until meat is tender.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Remove the bay leaf and serve hot with a generous dollop of sour cream with each serving (goes well with cooked noodles!).

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a 4- to 6-quart saucepan or casserole over medium heat. Add onion and saute until translucent, about 3 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and add 2 tablespoons water and the sweet paprika and hot paprika. Place pan over low heat, and saute 3 minutes. Add pork, garlic, caraway seeds, dill and 2 more tablespoons water. Cover, and cook until pork is tender, about 1 hour, stirring occasionally and adding a tablespoon or two of water if it seems too dry.
• Add chopped pepper and tomato to pan. Cover, and cook over low heat for 10 minutes. Uncover and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated. Add sauerkraut and toss gently to combine. Cover and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for an additional hour.
• Combine sour cream and heavy cream and mix well. Transfer half the mixture to a serving bowl, and refrigerate until needed. Add flour to the remainder, and stir until smooth. Add to pan. Cover and continue to cooking, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes. Garnish with a dollop of the reserved sour cream mixture, and pass the remainder separately.

Steps:

• 1. Boil the neck bones & onions till the meat is falling off the bones.
• 2. Save the broth and pick the meat from the bones then return to the broth.
• 3. Add the jar of sauerkraut (drained) to the meat.
• 4. Let it simmer for 15 to 20 mins.
