My dear friend made this dish the other day showing his interest in our Hungarian cusine. If you are Hungarian you must know this food. And must also know that we don't add mushroom. He did. My friend added it. That is his version.
I show you how I make it. Since it is a traditional dish you can find many different ways to preapre it.
I will be really quick in explaining because it is really quick to prepare it. This was one of my firsts.
- chicken - quite obvious
- paprika - red paprika powder. Not available in every country.
- red onion
- garlic
- tomato
- salt, pepper
- cooking oil
and the herbs: lovage, parsley
Serve with pasta or mash and pickles or soured cream. You can spice it up a little bit with mustard if the basic recipe is too boring :)
How to do it in some simple steps?
Clean the chicken parts - remove the feathers.
Cut the onion to small. Slice the tomato.
Add oil to a quite sizeable pot and heat it up with the onion. Once the onion is getting to be soft, add the tomato and cover the pot.
They must become a juicy, soft ... er... thing. Like on the second photo.
Add the chicken and cover it. Add water so that it is almost covered.
Add salt, pepper, red paprika powder.
20 minutes later add the herbs and taste it. If you miss some more salt or pepper, do not hesitate.
Be cautious so it does not stick to the pot. Stir every now and then.You will see when it is done.
Easy, fast, kid-friendly and terribly delicious.
