Ingredients:
- 450 g (1 lb.) pork or beef (thick flank and fillet ends)
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp. oil
- 1 tsp. paprika
- Salt and pepper
- 1 green pepper
- 100 g (3 1/2 oz.) carrots
- 100 g (3 1/2 oz.) turnips
- 360 g (13 oz.) potatoes
- For the csipetke (small dumplings)
- 100 g (3 1/2 oz.) flour
- 1 egg
- Salt
Clean and cube the meat. In a large
saucepan, fry the onion in oil until translucent; remove the pan from the heat,
sprinkle in the paprika, add the meat and cook over high heat for a couple of
minutes, stirring constantly.
Season with salt and pepper and cook, covered, until the meat is half-cooked.
Add the cleaned and quartered vegetables and the green pepper cut into rings.
Meanwhile, prepare the csipetke: make a stiff dough from the flour, egg and salt
(but do not add water!) With floured fingers, pinch small fingernail size bits
from the dough and place on a floured board.
Peel and cube the potatoes and add them to the soup with 1 liter (4 cups) water.
Bring to a boil, add the csipetke to the boiling soup, salt to taste (you can
also add a sprinkling of powdered cumin), and cook over low heat until all the
ingredients are tender.
Serve with cherry peppers in a small separate bowl for those who like their soup
"hot."
