Segedin Goulash or sauerkraut goulash recipe

Way back in January, when we still lived in New Zealand, we went to our friend, Lucia’s, house for Segedin Goulash and to have a Wii dance competition.

Lucia is from Slovakia, and she made us this glorious traditional dinner. I seriously couldn’t stop eating. I liked it so much, that she even gave me the leftovers to take for lunch the next day. I think she just wanted to shut me up.

I think I pestered her all night, in between dances to Proud Mary and The Spice Girls, to give me the recipe. The next day it was waiting for me in my email.

For the first time since then, it’s been cool enough to eat this fabulous dinner again.

It’s a very warming meal – one with sauerkraut, pork, and homemade dumplings.

The ingredients are basic, the cooking is easy (but takes a few hours of waiting), and it can be made in one pot!

The result is out of this world.

I could really go for another Wii Dance Party. Anyone interested? (Requirements – you must have a Wii, as I do not. BUT, I’ll bring dinner.)

This is my contribution to the Holiday Recipe Exchange.
