HUNGARIAN GOULASH I



Hungarian Goulash I image

A spicy way to dress up stew beef. My mom made this when we were kids, and we loved it. It is spicy while not mouth-burning! Can be made with cheaper cuts of beef, and comes out very tender. If it gets too thick, add a little water while it's cooking. Garnish with sour cream.

HUNGARIAN GOULASH

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 strip bacon
2 onions, medium dice
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 1/2 pounds stewing beef, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 garlic clove
Pinch caraway seeds
2 tablespoons good quality sweet paprika (see Cook's Note)
2 cups warm water
2 cubes beef bouillon
2 whole canned tomatoes, chopped
1 green bell pepper
4 or 5 potatoes
2 tablespoons sour cream, plus more for plating
1 pound prepared spaetzle, as an accompaniment
Cucumber Salad, as an accompaniment, recipe follows
2 cucumbers
Seasoned salt
1/2 onion
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup water
2 teaspoons sugar
1/8 teaspoon sweet paprika
Pinch dill, dried or fresh (optional)
Dollop sour cream (optional)

Steps:

  • In a cold, heavy 6 to 8-quart stewing pot, fry bacon over low-medium heat until fat is rendered, and then discard bacon slice.
  • Saute onions in the bacon fat for a few minutes, do not allow the onions to brown. If bacon does not provide enough fat, add a little olive oil to prevent the onions from sticking. When onions become glossy, add the beef, sauteing with the onions for about 10 minutes, covered, until the meat is browned.
  • Meanwhile, chop and crush the garlic with the caraway seeds; add to meat and onions. Remove pot from heat. Stir in paprika rapidly with a wooden spoon. Immediately after paprika is absorbed, add the warm water. The water should just cover the meat, leaving room for potatoes.
  • Add beef bouillon cubes. Cover pot and cook over low heat for about 1 hour.
  • While stew is braising, prepare the tomatoes by cutting into 1-inch pieces. Core green peppers and cut into strips. After 1 hour of braising, add the tomatoes and green pepper. Add a little more water, if necessary and a little more salt if you need it. Simmer slowly for another 30 minutes.
  • Peel potatoes and cut into bite-sized cubes and set aside in a bowl of water. Add potatoes, and cook another 30 minutes until the potatoes are fork tender and the goulash is done.
  • Once goulash is finished, dissolve sour cream and a little of the goulash sauce in a cup. Add to goulash, it should give a creamy consistency. Serve goulash with spaetzle and Cucumber Salad on the side, adding an extra dollop of sour cream to each plate.
  • Peel and slice cucumbers very thinly. The side of a metal grater with the wide slots works best here, or you can use a mandoline. Place cucumbers in a flat dish and sprinkle throughout with salt, making sure that all the slices are salted. Leave to rest for 30 minutes. The salt will draw the moisture out of the cucumbers. Cut the onion into paper-thin slices and place in a container. Once the cucumbers have released water, use your hands to squeeze out the excess water and add to the onions. The cucumbers are supposed to be limp, but still crisp.
  • In a measuring cup mix vinegar, water, sugar and paprika to create a vinaigrette. Pour over the cucumbers and onions and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 1/2 hours.
  • Serve with a sprinkle of dill and a little dollop of sour cream if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality beef: The better the quality of the beef, the better your goulash will be. Look for beef that is well-marbled and has a deep red color.
  • Brown the beef in batches: Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the beef. This will prevent the beef from steaming instead of browning.
  • Use a good quality paprika: Hungarian paprika is the best choice for goulash. It has a deep red color and a slightly sweet flavor.
  • Don't skimp on the onions: Onions add a lot of flavor to goulash. Use at least two large onions, or even more if you like.
  • Simmer the goulash for at least 1 hour: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the goulash with a dollop of sour cream: Sour cream adds a creamy richness to the goulash and helps to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.

Conclusion:

Hungarian goulash is a delicious and hearty stew that is perfect for a cold winter day. With its combination of tender beef, flavorful vegetables, and rich paprika sauce, goulash is a dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying meal, give Hungarian goulash a try. You won't be disappointed!
