directions

  • Heat the oil in a large pot and brown the beef cubes.
  • Add the onions and cook them with the meat until they are transparent or have a shiny appearance, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the tomato paste, paprika and the rest of the seasonings and stir well.
  • Add the stock and stir well again.
  • Add a little salt and pepper – it is best to use less salt during the cooking process and correct the seasoning when the meat is cooked to avoid over-seasoning.
  • Bring the whole pot to a boil then turn to low or medium-low and let the goulash cook slowly until the meat is tender, 2-4 hours, depending on cut of meat used. The onions are the thickening agent, so if the liquid evaporates, just add extra water a little at a time to avoid a thin goulash (I added about 1 cup additional water in two additions over the entire cooking time).

  1. This was a really lovely recipe. We cooked in a pressure cooker to bring the time down. Paired with Recipe #119809 and made for My Food Odyssey.
     
  2. This was very simple to make. Make sure you have a big pan, so you have enough room for all the onions. You might think that 2 pounds of onions would over power the other flavors but they don't. Word of caution, do not think you can leave your 17 years old son to watch this simmer. When I returned home, I found that he did not watch/stir it. So it burnt a little on the bottom of the pan. I'm sure glad I took the photo before I left the house. Made for More Than Sauerkraut And Dumplings! 2012

I have a degree in archaeology from a small Ohio college and I work for the Ohio History Connection. My passions are art, music, books, food, history, and cats/animal welfare. I also love photography. I have a 1,000 (plus) piece collection of vintage flower pins from the 1960's, hence the username ha. I also have small collections of vintage butterfly pins, vintage tablecloths, and vintage glass Christmas ornaments. (Can you tell I love vintage?) I took a trip to the Netherlands in March 2006 and fell in love! I doubt it will happen but if I ever have the opportunity I would love to live there.
