Helen's Pork Gulyas

glitter's Note:

This is similar to other Hungarian Pork Gulyas, but with a twist. I marinated the pork, and the cajun seasoning does something wonderful to the taste of this dish. You can make it as spicy as you like. I actually did. Serve with Fresh Hard Crusted Bread for dunking the sauce and a green leafy salad. Also yu can add a tsp. of tomato paste for a little added flavor.(opt.)
