HUNGARIAN PORK ONE POT

Steps:

• Char the bell peppers over an open flame or under a hot broiler until the skins are black and papery. Place in mixing bowl and cover to cool. Wipe the skins off with paper towels, and then seed the peppers. Cut into bite-size pieces and reserve for later use.
• Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper and lightly dredge in flour. Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the meat in batches and remove to a plate, adding a little additional oil when necessary. When all of the meat is browned and set aside, add the garlic, onions and chile peppers to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and add in the paprika. Reduce the heat a bit and cook to soften the vegetables, 5 to 6 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the wine. Add the meat and roasted peppers to the pan and stir in the stock. Cover and simmer over low flame or roast in a preheated 325 degree F oven for about 1 hour.
• Stir in the potatoes and continue to cook until the meat and potatoes are tender, an additional 30 to 40 minutes.
• Cool and store for a make-ahead meal. To serve, heat over medium heat, adding a little stock or water if the dish is too thick. Stir in the creme fraiche and serve in shallow bowls topped with parsley.

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Rub the pork all over with 2 teaspoons paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning until browned, 3 minutes. Remove to a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until a thermometer inserted into the center reaches 145 degrees F, about 18 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, wipe the pot clean and heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 4 minutes. Stir in the cabbage, onion, the remaining 1 teaspoon paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage wilts slightly, about 4 minutes.
• Add the broth and brown sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium low; cover and cook until the vegetables are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the vinegar. Increase the heat to medium high; cook until the sauce is reduced, 4 minutes. Add the herbs. Slice the pork; serve with the vegetables. Top with the sour cream and more paprika.
