Pork cubes with mushrooms and cream cheese are a variation on traditional Slovak pork with mushrooms, with a creamy cheese sauce. The pork is browned, then simmered with a little water, mushrooms, tomato puree, and garlic. Cream cheese is stirred in at the end until melted. The method is simple, and the entire dish is made in one pot. This recipe serves six and works well for a quick lunch or dinner.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Cut the pork into large cubes, place in a pot with a little oil, and begin browning.
Clean the mushrooms and cut them into pieces. Once the pork turns pale and releases its juices, add a little water and the mushrooms.
Stir in the tomato puree and garlic and let simmer. When the pork is cooked through, add the cream cheese and stir until completely melted. Season lightly with pepper and serve.

Tip: Add the cream cheese to the sauce a spoonful at a time over low heat, then avoid bringing it to a rolling boil so the cheese melts smoothly without curdling.
