- 2 Tbsp. Flour
- 1 c. Lowfat sour cream

- 1 Tbsp. Caraway Seed
- 1 Tbsp. Parsley, finely minced
- In a 4-qt casserole, heat the lard till a light haze forms over it.
- Add in the pork and over high heat brown it on all sides.
- About 10 to 15 min.

- Preheat oven to 350.
- Pour off all but a thin film of the fat and add in the onions.
- Cook them about 8 min over medium heat or possibly till they are lightly colored.
- Add in the carrots and cook 2 to 3 min longer.
- Off the heat, stir in the paprika.
- Continue to stir till the vegetables are coated.
- Pour in the stock and bring it to a boil, stirring in any brown bits which cling to the bottom and sides of the pan.
- Return the pork to the pan, fat side up, salt and pepper it, and bring the liquid to a boil again.
- Cover tightly and braise the pork in the middle of the oven for 1 1/2 hrs, or possibly till thoroughly cooked and tender.
- Baste it occasionally with pan juices.
- Transfer the pork to a heated platter.
- Pour the contents of the pan into a sieve set over a saucepan, pressing down hard on the vegetables before discarding them.
- Skim off as much of the surface fat from the pan liquid as possible and bring the sauce to a simmer on the stove.
- With a wire wisk, beat the flour and lowfat sour cream together in a bowl, then beat the mix into the pan.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer once more and add in the parsley, capers and caraway seeds.
- Taste for seasoning.
- Carve pork into 1/4 to 1/2 inch slices and serve with some of the sauce poured over them and the rest passed separately in a sauce boat.
