Creamy smoked paprika pork Stroganoff style

Tonights simple dinner has only a few ingredients but is delicious for it. The starter was the loin of pork and the next question was what to do with it. We usually have it stuffed and wrapped in pastry but I felt that was too heavy for tonight. Instead a look in the fridge and a chunky creamy stroganoff was decided. Simple to prepare and cook. For a more indulgent dish use cream but I prefer using creme fraiche.

Ingredients:

• Fillet of pork loin
• 2 tbs rapeseed or olive oil or even vegetable oil
• 2 onions
• 2 heaped tbs Creme fraiche or cream, add more if you like.
• 1 tbs Smoked paprika
• 1 chicken stock cube
• Salt and pepper
• 150ml water

In a frying pan add 1 tbs oil. Slice the onions into rings and add to the pan. Cook for about 15 minutes to soften and brown slightly. Remove from pan.

Cut the loin into chunks or strips and season with salt and pepper. I chose chunks as I sometimes find that the strips can be chewy. Add the rest of the oil and brown the pork.

Add the onions back in and then add the paprika over the meat. I then grate the stock cube over the meat and add more black pepper. The paprika is salty and strong tasting so I don't add salt again until the end, if required.

Add in the water and give a good stir.

Cook slowly for about 25 minutes then add the creme fraiche stir again and cook for another 5 minutes.

Serve with some boiled rice. Simple and very tasty.
