  1. Hi, the recipe sounds good, but its not a gulyás (in hungarian). Sour cream never used in gulyás. :) and if you would like to use wine please use dry red wine never white!
     
  2. This came out excellent! The meat was so tender and all the flavors blended well together...I, like others subbed mushrooms for the potatoes...I served it over spaetzle...thanks for posting the recipe...=)
     
  3. This was really amazing! I ended up using shallot in place of onion and red wine instead of white and just left out the potatoes completely and threw in button mushrooms instead. The sauce was delicious and everything was tender and melt-in-your-mouth fantastic. I'll be turning to this recipe often in my new pressure cooker. Highly recommend!! Thanks so much for sharing!
     
  4. Easy, quick & tasty recipe. I agree with Littleturtle on the salt/pepper portions. My potatoes got abit over-done so next time I'll only cook for 8 mins. I used white wine & next time will try red wine. Thanks for sharing.
     
  5. I subbed russet potatoes for the red. I used 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper and I think it could have used a bit more of both; we all ended up adding more salt and pepper at the table. Delicious though.The caraway seeds really add a great flavor. Thanks for sharing.

  3. This dish was absolutely wonderful! I just bought a pressure cooker and was looking for recipes and found this. I used a chuck roast and doubled the amount of potatoes, and it was great. The green peppers tasted a little strong (DH doesn't like peppers), but the dish was EVEN BETTER reheated the next day. I will be making this again to freeze, perhaps without the potatoes. BTW, my 16-year-old son said the goulash was "OK," but then he asked if we could cook "everything in the pressure cooker from now on." I guess he approved, too! 6/22/07-adding that we substituted one small (hot) Hungarian pepper for the sweet green peppers, and it was even better.
     

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes: ? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again. ? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time. ? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK ? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all ? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
