To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:

For the Goulash:

- 1 1/2 pounds pork shoulder, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 onions, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons sweet paprika
- 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 1/2 cup sour cream

For the Dumplings:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 egg, beaten
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 onions and garlic to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the sweet paprika, caraway seeds, salt, and black pepper and cook for another minute.
Add the beef broth, diced tomatoes, red and green bell peppers, and the browned pork to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the pork is tender.
While the goulash is simmering, make the dumplings. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the milk and egg and stir until a thick batter forms.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the simmering goulash, making sure to space them out evenly. Cover the pot and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through.
To finish the dish, stir in the sour cream and adjust the seasoning to taste. Serve the goulash hot with the dumplings on top.
This Pork and Paprika Goulash with Dumplings is a comforting and satisfying dish that is perfect for a chilly evening. The tender pork, sweet paprika, and fluffy dumplings all come together to create a dish that is both hearty and flavorful. This dish is perfect for a cozy night in with family or friends.
