Beef Goulash is a hearty family favorite, full of tender beef chunks in rich, dark gravy. Cozy comfort food never tasted so divine!

Ingredients
- 2 pounds steak cubed (stew meat works great)
- salt and pepper
- 1 onion medium, chopped or diced
- 1 package dry onion soup mix
- 3-4 cups beef broth
- 1/2 tablespoon browning (or soy sauce)
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1-2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 4-5 carrots peeled and cut (or about 1-2 cups of baby carrots)
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/3 cup water
- 8 cups mashed potatoes (optional)
Instructions
- Braise beef in oil over medium high heat until just brown on all sides. Remove beef from skillet and set aside.
- Add onions to skillet and saute until onions become clear and tender
- Transfer beef to a large pot or Dutch oven and add onion soup mix, beef broth, browning (or soy sauce), paprika, and Worcestershire.
- Bring to a boil, then simmer for about an hour. If you want the beef to be really tender, simmer for even longer. About 20 minutes before serving, add carrots and simmer until ready to serve.
- Right before serving, add cornstarch to water and stir until smooth. SLOWLY stir cornstarch mixture into the goulash until reaching desired consistency (you want it to be like a thin gravy consistency). Add beef broth to thin out or more cornstarch to thicken.
- Add salt and pepper to taste before serving. Serve over mashed potatoes, rice or toast. *You can also throw everything in a crock pot and cook on low for 4-6 hours.
Notes
- We love to serve goulash over mashed potatoes, but it would be delicious on buttered rice or thick slices of sourdough toast.
