Pörkölt (Hungarian: [ˈpørkølt]) is a meat stew which originates from Hungary, but is eaten throughout Central Europe.Then set aside the pot and immediately add paprika powder and the meat and "stir-fry" (this is the origin of the verb pörkölni – 'to roast').These are stews using black pepper and kitchen herbs like marjoram for spices instead, often made with mixed meats, vegetables and wild mushrooms, depending on the season and the region.In the Czech Republic, pörkölt is made with pork, beer, dark bread and caraway.Goulash (Polish: Gulasz) is similar to Hungarian Pörkölt, and is also popular in Poland, usually being eaten with potatoes.
