Pork Goulash

This was another request from Mark.  It is an easy meal cooked in one pot - which saves on the washing up.  


Potatoes - 1 - 2 medium sized ones per person.
Pork approx one loin chop per person
1 - 2 onions sliced
Sliced mushrooms (optional)
1 can of tomatoes
Chicken stock
Mixed herbs
Paprika - lots of it


  • Peel the potatoes and cut into chunks. 
  • Cut the pork into bite size pieces & slice the onions.  Put them into a pan to brown until the onions are soft.  
  • Cut the stalk end off the tomatoes and remove the seeds from the middle, add to the pan with the meat and onions.  
  • Fill the can with cold water and crumble a a chicken stock cube in.  
  • Add a pinch of mixed herbs and lots of paprika.  Remove the pan from the heat before adding the paprika.  Paprika is not a hot spice so don't be afraid of it, it just imparts a lovely smokey flavour.

  • Cover and simmer for around 1 1/2 hours, then add the potatoes and cook for a further hour.
  • When cooked this should be thick.
