Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep frypan and cook onions on a medium heat until soft and translucent. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
• Add paprika to onion and stir through.
• Add diced meat to mixture and coat and marinade the mixture whilst you prepare the tomato and capsicum. Make sure you keep the juice from the tomato to add to the dish.
• Stir in the tomato and capsicum and return to a medium/high heat and allow to cook for a few minutes on this heat before reducing the heat to medium/low. Cover with a lid for this to cook.
• After 15 minutes, add the wine and salt, stir and simmer for 1 hour at least with a cover/lid, stirring occasionally.
• NOTE: do not brown the meat before adding to the onions -- it must marinade and cook with the vegetables so the juices create a nice flavorsome gravy.
• Serve with mashed potato or boiled rice and a simple side salad of lettuce and vinegar.

• Let beef simmer in its own juice along with salt and paprika for 1 hr on very low heat.
• Add water, diced potatoes and remaining salt. Cover and simmer until potatoes are done and meat is tender.
• Add more paprika if required towards the end, sauce should be thick and flavorsome. You can also add a tablespoon of flour at end to thicken slightly.
• Prepare the nokedli to accompany the goulash:
• Hand-beat eggs with fork for 30 secs and add water. Add flour to beaten eggs and add salt.
• Mix well until it forms a ball. Let it stand for 1/2 hour for flour to mellow.
• Take a teaspoonful of the mix and drop into boiling water. Repeat until mix is finished. Once dumplings rise to surface they are ready (normally takes about 1 min).
• Once you have removed all the nokedli, mix it in with a bit of salted butter and chopped parley.
• Mix the sourcream and horseradish cream. Top the goulash with the cream. Garnish with parsley and serve it with the nokedli.
