  • Peel and rinse all the vegetables for the goulash under running water. Finely dice the onion. Cut the carrots into medium rounds. Cut the potatoes in half or into quarters, depending on the size. Cut the tomatoes into cubes. Rinse the pork thoroughly under cool water and pat it dry with paper towels, then trim off any membranes, sinew, and bone. Cut the meat into cubes and toss lightly with flour. In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, melt a small piece of butter. Once it melts, add the chopped onion and cook over low heat until translucent and fragrant. Season the onion with the caraway and paprika and stir to combine. Add the flour-coated pork and cook everything together over medium heat for about 3 minutes, until the meat starts to brown. Pour in a little of the meat broth in a thin stream (you can use water instead) and stir well — the browned pork will turn the broth a deeper brown and add flavor. Then pour in the rest of the broth and stir again. Add the tomatoes, carrot rounds, and potatoes. Season with salt and ground black pepper, stir once more, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer the goulash for an hour to an hour and a half, until the meat and vegetables are tender. Serve the classic pork goulash hot, ladled into bowls and garnished with chopped fresh herbs. Enjoy!
