Measure the tarhonya and prepare the hot water and chopped vegetables.
Toast the tarhonya in oil for 5 minutes until the grains take on a little color.
Add the onion and pepper and cook for 4 minutes.
Turn the paprika for 30 seconds and add the hot water.
Cook the tarhonya over low heat for 13 minutes, stirring at the start so the grains do not stick together.
Rest the pot for 8 minutes and fluff with a fork.
💡 Tip: Briefly toasting the tarhonya first helps the grains stay separate instead of falling apart in the pot.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the tarhonya hot with pickles and sour cream on the side.
