Peel potatoes and cut into 4–8 pieces, depending on size.
Rinse well, cover with cold water, season with salt, and bring to a boil.
Cook over medium heat, covered, for 10–12 minutes; check for doneness by piercing with a fork.
Finely chop parsley, dice onion, and remove membranes from sweet pepper before cutting it into 0.5 cm cubes.
2. Start cooking meat
Add pork tenderloin slices to pan with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and let them brown well. Stir, then add onion and sweet pepper and cook over high heat for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
3. Start cooking sauce
Stir in tomato paste and goulash spice blend and sauté for 30 seconds.
5. Finish sauce
Carefully pour in 1 cup water, stir, bring sauce to a boil, then cover and leave it to simmer over the lowest heat for 15 minutes.
Taste for salt at the very end.
5. Cook mashed potato
When potatoes are cooked, drain them, reserving half a cup of the cooking water.
Mash in your usual way — through a sieve, with a potato masher, or using a potato ricer.
Fold in butter and bring mash to your preferred consistency with the reserved cooking liquid, tasting for salt as you go.
6. Serve
Divide mash between plates, make a small well with the back of a spoon, nestle in meat and vegetables, then spoon over pan sauce and finish with chopped parsley.
