beef goulash

A classic Hungarian Goulash with melt-in-your mouth, tender beef, slowly cooked in an incredibly rich broth. Tasty, comforting and perfect for the whole family!

Hungarian Goulash

olive oil

beef

salt (or

tsp pepper (or

onions (roughly chopped)

garlic (minced)

tbsp sweet paprika

tsp caraway seeds (ground)

oregano

bay leaves

brown sugar

tomato sauce

tbsp balsamic vinegar

beef broth (no salt added)

tbsp parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Heat a large deep skillet or Dutch oven over high heat then add the olive oil.

When the oil is hot add the stewing beef. Season with salt and pepper and sear the beef until it starts to brown. The beef will release liquid so continue searing on high heat, and the liquid will evaporate. Alternatively you could drain all the liquid.

Add the onions and garlic to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes until the onions soften and become translucent. Turn the heat down to medium-high.

Add the paprika, caraway seeds, oregano, bay leaves and brown sugar to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for 30 seconds.&nbsp;

Add the tomato sauce, balsamic vinegar, beef broth and stir. Bring to a boil, then cover and cook on low for about 2 hours or until the beef is fork tender, stirring occasionally. The liquid will reduce down a lot as the beef cooks, so feel free to add more water as needed.

Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper if needed.

Garnish with chopped parsley and serve over noodles or mashed potatoes.

Crock Pot Goulash

My favorite Hungarian beef goulash recipe that I modified a bit to my likings. Fairly easy to make, very satisfying and perfect to feed a large crowd.

Hungarian Beef Goulash

kg beef shank

tomatoes

green peppers

carrot

large root parsley

potatoes

100 g lard (or vegetable oil)

soy sauce

mustard

black pepper

sweet paprika

marjoram

beer

beef broth

garlic

flat leaf parsley

chilli

Chop onions roughly and sauté them on lard until golden brown.

Cut meat into cubes, add seasonings and let marinate until the onions are ready.

Add the meat, cover the pot and braise on low heat.

Cut the peppers and tomatoes into small pieces. Peel the tomatoes first. Dice the potatoes.

Once the meat becomes somewhat soft, which can take up to an hour, add beer, broth/stock, all the veggies and 1/3 of the potatoes.

Keep cooking in covered pot, until the potatoes are fully cooked and start breaking apart.

Add crushed garlic, chopped flat leaf parsley and the rest of the potatoes.

Cook for about 10 minutes and taste the goulash. Add salt or pepper if needed. Add chilli if you like your food spicy.

Once the meat is soft and tender and the second batch of potatoes are fully cooked, add crushed marjoram. Cook for 10 more minutes and we are done!

Serve in bowls, topped with finely sliced purple onions, some more parsley and a touch of chilli flakes.

This humble stew is loaded with chunks of tender, melt-in-your-mouth beef and vegetables. A rich, beefy broth flavored with sweet paprika makes this a true comfort meal.

Slow Cooker beef Goulash

An authentic German goulash recipe just the way my mother-in-law makes it. Tender chunks of beef in a rich, hearty, delicious onion gravy.

Authentic German Goulash Recipe

2.2 lbs onions (1 kg)

carrots

celeriac celery

butter

½ teaspoon sweet paprika

dry red wine (750 ml, Note 2)

beef stock (300 ml)

caraway seeds (to taste)

Chop meat

Cut the meat into cubes (about 1 inch/ 2 ½ cm). Set aside.

Chop vegetables

Brown vegetables

Brown vegetables: Heat the clarified butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot. Add the vegetables and a pinch of salt, and cook, often stirring, for about 10-15 minutes on medium heat, until deeply golden brown. Don’t let them catch too much at the bottom of the pan. Keep stirring and turn down the heat a bit if necessary.

Add tomato paste

Add tomato paste and stir it continuously for about 2 minutes to mix it with the vegetables and let it brown slightly.

Add paprika

Add both kinds of paprika powder and stir well to combine.

Add liquids

Pour in the wine and the stock, add bay leaves, marjoram, caraway seeds, and pepper. Don’t add salt now; it all depends on the stock you are using.

Simmer goulash

Simmer: Add the meat, bring to a boil, cover, and simmer on low heat for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally, or until the meat is perfectly tender.

Adjust taste

Thicken gravy

The gravy should be thick and glossy; if you want it to be thicker, you can cook the German goulash for 10-15 minutes more without the lid. This will allow the sauce to reduce more. However, I seldom find that necessary; it’s usually as thick as we like after the initial cooking time.

Thick and flavorful German goulash with tender chunks of beef and dark Bavarian lager. The addition of potatoes and/or peppers and carrots is optional.
