Instructions
- Cut the beef into 1-inch cubes. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.
- Put the beef in the slow cooker and stir in the flour.
- Add the onion, garlic, marjoram, caraway seed, salt, paprika, tomato paste and water to the slow cooker. Stir.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 5-6 hours.
- Slice the mushroom and dice the carrots.
- Stir the carrots and mushrooms into the goulash an hour before you want to eat.
- Cook for another hour.
- Add the sour cream right before serving.
Notes
- You can add the carrots and mushrooms at the start of cooking. I personally prefer their texture when they only cook for the last hour.
- Don't add add extra liquid. The slow cooking process will draw out moisture from the meat and vegetables, creating plenty of sauce. If you add too much at the start, you'll end up with soup instead of goulash.
- You can use stew meat, chuck, roast, sirloin steak, or whatever cut of beef you like.
- The sour cream adds a nice tang and creaminess, but you can definitely leave it out.
- You can add other vegetables based on your tastes. Potatoes are a common addition. Just add them in with the carrots and mushrooms about an hour before serving.
