Authentic Hungarian Goulash

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 large onions, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 medium carrots, sliced
  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent.
  2. Add the minced garlic, sweet paprika, caraway seeds, salt, and black pepper. Stir for about a minute until fragrant.
  3. Next, add the beef cubes to the pot and brown them on all sides. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Once the beef is browned, pour in the beef broth and bring it to a simmer. Add the diced tomatoes (with their juice), bay leaf, carrots, potatoes, and bell pepper.
  5. Cover the pot and let it simmer on low heat for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors are well combined. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  6. Check the seasoning and adjust with more salt or pepper as needed. Remove the bay leaf before serving.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot, ideally with fresh bread or dumplings on the side.
