PREPARATION

1
Cut the bacon into strips and render its fat in a little grease.

Cut the meat into cubes and sear it in the bacon fat, season with salt and pepper, but do not cook it through completely. This takes about 1-2 minutes over high heat.
3
Remove the meat and sauté the onion, garlic, and mushrooms in the remaining drippings.

Do not toast the tarhonya now, just cook it in at least three times its volume of salted broth as if it were pasta.

Return the meat cubes to the mushroom drippings and simmer for a few minutes.
6
Serve with tarhonya and your favorite pickles.

Tip

It can also be prepared with other meats, such as beef tenderloin, or even chicken thigh fillet. For mushrooms, you can use wild mushrooms, or button mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, whatever you like.
