- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
- 1 teaspoon salt

To start, heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the pork from the pot and set aside.
Add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the paprika, caraway seeds, salt, and black pepper and cook for another minute.

In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and water to make a slurry. Add the slurry to the pot and stir to thicken the sauce.
To make the dumplings, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling batter into the pot and cover. Cook for 10-15 minutes, until the dumplings are cooked through.
