Goulash-bograch
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Bograch is traditionally cooked in a cauldron over an open fire, which makes the dish very aromatic and draws everyone to the table. Modern home cooks have learned to prepare it using a regular kitchen stove. The dish must include pork fat or pieces of smoked ham, which give it richness and heartiness. In consistency, the dish resembles stew with gravy. I've made a few changes to the traditional recipe by adding dumplings. Serve hot.
