Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef stew meat cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 large onions diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons Hungarian sweet paprika
- 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 4 cups beef broth
- 2 large carrots peeled and cut into 1/2-inch rounds
- 2 large potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 bay leaves
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley optional
Instructions
- In a large stock pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the beef stew meat to the pot and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the meat from the pot and set aside.
- In the same pot, add the diced onions and cook until softened and lightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic, Hungarian sweet paprika, caraway seeds, salt, and black pepper to the onions. Stir to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Stir in the tomato paste and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Pour in the beef broth, scraping the bottom of the pot to deglaze and release any browned bits.
- Return the browned beef to the pot and add the sliced carrots, cubed potatoes, and bay leaves.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
- Remove the bay leaves and discard.
- Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
Notes
- For a thicker goulash, you can remove 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid and mix it with 2 tablespoons of flour to make a slurry. Stir this mixture back into the pot and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes,or until the goulash has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
