  • Cooking: 53 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (442 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: High protein, Low carb
  • Contains: alcohol, dairy, gluten, pork, sulphite

Ingredients

  • 160 g Pork shoulder, raw
  • 20 g Bacon, raw
  • 40 g Onions, raw
  • 80 g Mushrooms, white button, raw
  • 60 g Tomatoes, canned, crushed
  • 1.5 g Paprika
  • 8 g Flour, all-purpose
  • 30 g Wine, white
  • 30 g Sour cream
  • 3 g Parsley, fresh
  • 1 g Salt
  • 8 g Vegetable oil

Method

  1. Cut the pork into bite-sized pieces and dice the bacon; fry both in the oil over medium-high heat until browned, about 8 minutes.
  2. Add the chopped onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened, then stir in the paprika and flour and cook for 1 minute more.
  3. Add the mushrooms, crushed tomatoes and white wine, and simmer uncovered for 30-35 minutes until the pork is tender and the sauce has thickened, stirring occasionally.
  4. Season with the salt, then stir in the sour cream and warm through gently without letting it boil hard.
  5. Scatter with chopped parsley and serve hot; it is traditionally finished briefly in a clay dish, though a stovetop pan works just as well.
