Paprika Sausage with Green Peppers and Tomatoes - Lecsó
Flavors of Hungary
Total time: 30 to 60 minutes
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: Under 30 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Chef's Note
If you do not like the taste of smoked bacon, you can use 2 tbsp. oil instead and add frankfurters or plain sausages. For those who like their lecsó hot, serve crushed hot peppers in a small dish on the side.
