Polish Pork Stew served with barley

Ingredients

  • 1,4 kg pork/ 3 lb (I used ham)
  • 2-3 onions
  • 2 peppers (I used red and yellow – for colors)
  • 2 carrots (for crispiness)
  • 1 -1,5 l meat/vegetable stock (you can prepare it yourself: chicken stock)
  • ground paprika, salt and pepper
  • 2 pieces dried mushrooms
  • 3/4 cup sweet cream
  • 1 tbs butter (optional)

Dice pork in a medium size pieces. Shortly fry them from all sides, add paprika and place in a big pot. Add diced onions, dried mushrooms and cover with the stock. Put on a low heat and simmer for 1,5 hour.

In a meantime add diced carrots and peppers. Season with salt and pepper.

Check every several minutes. Add some more stock if necessary. Meat should be more less covered with a sauce. Mind that onions and vegetables will also give their liquids and make sauce thicker.

At the end of cooking add sweet cream and butter. They will make the stew smooth.
