Recipe Notes

Pork goulash in a frying pan with gravy can be prepared with the addition of extra vegetables, such as carrots, bell peppers, parsley root, celery, or parsnips. Alternatively, you can make it with just onions. Most commonly, a combination of onions and carrots is used, as they add both texture and flavor to the goulash. The key is to achieve a rich, thick tomato sauce thickened with flour. Some variations of this recipe also incorporate sour cream, which can mellow the sharpness of the tomato gravy, but this is entirely up to your taste.

Important! The choice of the right frying pan is crucial for a successful outcome.

Keep in mind that oils are only suitable for cooking up to a certain temperature, known as the smoke point. Beyond this point, the oil can start to burn and release toxic substances, including carcinogens.

In this recipe, you can substitute tomato paste with canned tomatoes in their own juice, fresh tomatoes, or ketchup.

It doesn't matter which part of the pork carcass you choose for this recipe, as it will become tender during the cooking process.
