Potato Paprikash

Hi everyone!

Tomorrow we are having Potato Paprikash for dinner. I think my 10 year old will love this. To convert the grams, remember that there are 125 grams in 1 cup. So just estimate, you don't have to be exact. I would say use 1.5 cups sausage and about 3/4 cup of bacon. Realistically, I'll probably just dice up a package of bacon and I'll use a whole package of smoked sausage. We'll also have a green salad.

Potato Paprikash
(Dusanka)

8 - 10 medium size peeled potatoes (cut into large cubes).
200g. of smoked sausage (sliced)
100g. of smoked bacon (sliced)
1 large finely chopped onion
1 medium size cubanell or other light green pepper (chopped)
1 medium size ripe tomato (sliced 6 - 8 pieces)
1/2 tsp. salt
1 large Tbs. of paprika
1 tsp. vegetable bouillon powder
1 Tbs. ketchup
1/4 tsp. of grated black pepper
1/4 tsp. of marjoram leaves
1 pinch of sweet basil
3 - 4 coriander seeds
1/2 - 1/3 cup of water

In a medium pot fry the smoked bacon until medium brown. Take the bacon pieces out of the fat and put to the side. Add the finely chopped onion into the bacon fat and fry till medium brown. Sprinkle with 1 Tbs. of mild to hot paprika and add the potato cubes Toss back the bacon pieces, the smoked sausage rings, the chopped green pepper, the tomato slices, salt, black pepper, vegeta, ketchup, marjoram leaves, sweet basil, coriander seeds and the water. On low heat simmer under lid till tender, with occasional stirring. Taste it if more salt needed.

Dusanka's notes: I fry up the sausage right after I remove my bacon. And then I remove the slightly browned sausage pieces. And then I add my onion.

Potato Paprikash - This was good. I did make a few changes though. I used a whole package of bacon and a whole package of turkey smoked sausage. I only used 5 potatoes because 8-10 just seemed like a ton. Overall, everyone really liked it.
