SPICY PORK AND CHILI-PEPPER GOULASH



Spicy Pork and Chili-Pepper Goulash image

The idea of cooking a tough piece of pork in a lovely pepper stew to make it extremely tender and melt-in-your-mouth is something I find quite exciting. This dish in particular is one of my favorites and, unless you've got a strange aversion to chiles and peppers, I know you'll end up making it again and again. It's a complete classic. It's also one of those dishes which tastes great when reheated the day after it's been made. You've got a whole range of chili and pepper flavors going on; from smoked paprika to fresh chiles, and fresh peppers to sweet grilled and peeled ones. Delish!

Time 3h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 1/4 pounds pork shoulder off the bone, in 1 piece, skin off, fat left on
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil
2 red onions, peeled and finely sliced
2 fresh red chiles, seeded and finely chopped
2 generous heaping tablespoons mild smoked paprika, plus a little extra for serving
2 teaspoons ground caraway seeds
Small bunch fresh marjoram or oregano, leaves picked
5 bell peppers (use a mixture of colors), sliced
1 (10-ounce) jar grilled peppers, drained, peeled and chopped
1 (14-ounce) can good quality plum tomatoes
4 tablespoons red wine vinegar
14 ounces basmati or long-grain rice, washed
2/3 cup sour cream
1 lemon, zested
Small bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Get yourself a deep, ovenproof stew pot with a lid and heat it on the stove. Score the fat on the pork in a criss-cross pattern all the way through to the meat, then season generously with salt and pepper. Pour a good glug of olive oil into the pot and add the pork, fat side down. Cook for about 15 minutes on a medium heat, to render out the fat, then remove the pork from the pot and put it to 1 side.
  • Add the onions, chili, paprika, caraway seeds, marjoram or oregano and a good pinch of salt and pepper to the pot. Turn the heat down and gently cook the onions for 10 minutes, then add the sliced peppers, the grilled peppers and the tomatoes. Put the pork back into the pot, give everything a little shake, then pour in enough water to just cover the meat. Add the vinegar - this will give it a nice little twang. Bring to the boil, put the lid on top, then place in the preheated oven for 3 hours.
  • You'll know when the meat is cooked as it will be tender and sticky, and it will break up easily when pulled apart with 2 forks. If it's not quite there yet, put the pot back into the oven and just be patient for a little longer!
  • When the meat is nearly ready, cook the rice in salted, boiling water for 10 minutes until it's just undercooked, then drain in a colander, reserving some of the cooking water and pouring it back into the pan. Place the colander over the pan on a low heat and put a lid on. Leave to steam dry and cook through for 10 minutes - this will make the rice lovely and fluffy.
  • Stir the sour cream, lemon zest and most of the parsley together in a little bowl. When the meat is done, take the pot out of the oven and taste the goulash. You're after a balance of sweetness from the peppers and spiciness from the caraway seeds. Tear or break the meat up and serve the goulash in a big dish or bowl, with steaming rice and your flavored sour cream. Sprinkle with the rest of the chopped parsley and tuck in!

Categories     Beef

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 c cavatappi, elbow or shell pasta
1/2 lb ground beef, lean
2 Tbsp italian sausage, hot, mild or sweet
2 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 small green bell pepper, diced
1 medium carrot, peeled & diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 can(s) stewed tomatoes, italian-style
2 can(s) tomato soup
2 Tbsp italian seasoning blend
1 tsp garlic salt
1 1/2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 can(s) water to thin soup slightly into a sauce
1 1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese
3 Tbsp pickled jalapeno - optional**

Steps:

  • 1. Bring 3 qts. salted water to a rolling boil and add pasta. Stir, cover and cook pasta until al dente (approximately 9 minutes) I like using cavatappi a/k/a callentani pasta it's a more hearty pasta that holds onto the sauce better and it looks pretty too.
  • 2. Meanwhile in a large skillet thoroughly brown ground beef & sausage. Move browned meat to the edges or one side of your skillet.
  • 3. In the center of the skillet add 1-2 T. olive oil if necessary then add diced onion, bell pepper, carrot and saute for 2-3 minutes until onion turns translucent.
  • 4. Add garlic and saute for a few seconds and add the remaining ingredients except the cheese, allow to simmer for approximately 5-10 minutes. **Kick it up more by adding 2-3 T pickled jalepeno rings sliced or diced
  • 5. Drain pasta and add it to a 9 x 13 casserole dish and pour the meat sauce mixture over the pasta. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes to allow flavors to meld together and sauce to thicken slightly.
  • 6. Remove from oven and top with cheese and let stand for 5-10 minutes to allow cheese to melt.
  • 7. Serve with corn casserole (check out Rene Palmer's recipe), french garlic bread and a fresh green salad.
