Gulasch, also known as Beef Goulash, is a versatile dish that one could enjoy as lunch, dinner or even early morning as a fantastic cure for hang over. This dish maybe the most popular dish in Western Europe, next to the awesome pumpkin seed oil salad.

You don’t have to go to Germany or Austria to enjoy them, this recipe is simple and straight forward to follow. Probably best prepared with a couple of close friends, especially considering the amount of onions to chop.

Ingredients

• 500g beef
• 1kg onions
• oil
• 1 whole garlic
• a pinch of salt and pepper
• a few tbs of paprika powder sweet
• a few tbs of paprika powder hot
• a few tbs coriander powder
• a few tbs marjoram powder
• 5 ts vinegar
• gulasch powder base

Steps

1. Cut the beef into small size cubes. Finely chop the onions and garlic into small pieces. Be prepare to cry. Don’t try to cheat by using a blender as that will release the bitterness from the onions.
2. Heat the oil in a high cooking pot and cook the onions and garlic in a low heat at least for 15 minutes.
3. Add all the spices into the pot, season to taste. I usually use 3 or 4 table spoons of each spices.
4. Add the vinegar and 1/4 lt of water in a pot. Mix it with gulasch powder base for color and taste consistency.
5. Add the meat into the pot.
6. Let it cook for 1 hour until the meat is very tender and the onions are smooth. We’re looking for soup-like texture. Stir every now and then. In the meantime, do this very important step! Open up a few bottles of beer and enjoy them while you are waiting.
7. Serve with a few slices of bread. Enjoy!
