About Paprika in tomato sauce

Paprika in Tomato Sauce is a savory dish originating from Central and Eastern European cuisine, especially popular in Hungarian cooking. It combines the rich, smoky flavors of paprika with the tangy sweetness of simmered tomatoes to create a vibrant and aromatic sauce. Essential ingredients typically include fresh or canned tomatoes, sweet or smoked paprika, onions, garlic, olive oil, and optional herbs like parsley. This dish is often used as a base for stews or served alongside proteins like chicken or tofu. Due to its tomato base, it is rich in antioxidants like lycopene and Vitamin C, promoting heart health and supporting immune function. However, its nutrition depends on preparation; excessive oil or salt can increase calorie content and sodium levels. When made with balanced seasoning and healthy fat choices, it remains a nutritious addition to a meal.
