Traditionally, this Hungarian classic is a slow-simmered medley of sweet peppers and tomatoes gently stewed into pure comfort. Brought straight from our HelloFresh family to yours, our speedy take uses smokey bacon and rich paprika to build that same authentic, savoury depth in a fraction of the time. Served alongside fluffy parsley potatoes to soak up the vibrant, peppery juices, it’s a rustic masterpiece that tastes just like home.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

1

Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water and add a generous pinch of salt.
Cut potato into bite-sized chunks.
Finely chop parsley.
Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to saucepan.
Add parsley and the butter. Toss to coat and season to taste.

2

Meanwhile, cut capsicum and tomato into bite-sized chunks.
Thinly slice brown onion (see ingredients).
Cut bacon into 1cm pieces.

3

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Pat salmon dry with paper towel and season both sides.
When oil is hot, cook salmon, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side.

TIP: Patting the skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan!

4

While the salmon is cooking, in a second medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Cook bacon until golden, 2-3 minutes.
Add capsicum, tomato and onion and cook, until tender, 5-6 minutes
