Ingredients

Directions

  1. Season the cubed pork shoulder with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the pork cubes and brown on all sides, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Remove pork and set aside.
  4. In the same pot, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
  5. Add the chopped onions and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  6. Add the sauerkraut to the onions and sauté for another 2-3 minutes to warm through.
  7. Return the browned pork to the pot.
  8. Sprinkle the flour, sweet paprika, cayenne pepper, and caraway seeds over the meat and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
  9. Add a small amount of water (about 1/2 to 1 cup) just to prevent sticking, then cover the pot.
  10. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for about 1 hour, or until the pork is fork-tender. Stir occasionally.
  11. While the goulash simmers, mix the sour cream with a little extra paprika in a small bowl.
  12. Warm the sour cream mixture gently in the microwave or a double boiler until just warm, being careful not to let it boil or curdle.
  13. Serve the goulash on warm plates, pouring the warm sour cream mixture over the top.
