Ingredients:

  • 800g diced beef (e.g., chuck or stewing beef)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 large onions, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 2.5cm cubes
  • 3 carrots, peeled and sliced into thick rounds
  • 1 red capsicum, sliced
  • 2 tbsp sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp ground caraway seeds
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 400g canned diced tomatoes
  • 500ml beef stock
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tsp dried marjoram
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 200g sour cream (optional, for serving)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Cooked egg noodles or crusty bread (for serving)

Instructions:

  1. Brown the Beef:
    • Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
    • Add the diced beef in batches, searing on all sides until browned. Remove and set aside.
  2. Cook the Onions and Garlic:
    • In the same pot, add the chopped onions and cook until softened and golden, about 5-7 minutes.
    • Add the minced garlic and sliced red capsicum, cooking for another 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the Spices:
    • Stir in the sweet paprika, smoked paprika, and ground caraway seeds, cooking for 1 minute to release their aromas.
  4. Tomatoes and Stock:
    • Add the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
    • Return the browned beef to the pot, then add the canned diced tomatoes and beef stock. Stir to combine.
  5. Add Potatoes and Carrots:
    • Add the potatoes, carrots, bay leaves, and dried marjoram.
    • Season with salt and pepper, then bring the mixture to a boil.
  6. Simmer:
    • Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and the potatoes and carrots are cooked through.
  7. Serve:
    • Once cooked, remove the bay leaves.
    • Serve the goulash hot, garnished with fresh parsley and a dollop of sour cream if desired.
    • Accompany with cooked egg noodles or crusty bread.
