There was a time when every stew was referred to as Hungarian Goulash, because information, especially about food was hard to get. Today, it is very specific and there are not too many variations on the original recipe. The main difference has been the use of smoked paprika over paprika and the addition of sugar to balance out the acid from the tomatoes. Often it is served with either potato or rice, but in this example I have pared it with leeks and asparagus. So let’s get cooking……….
400 grams cross cut blade steak or topside steak
1 onion roughly chopped
1 large carrot chopped rustically
1 tsp fennel seeds
4 medium sized mushrooms
1 can of Italian tomatoes pureed
2 cloves garlic
2 Oxo beef stock cubes dissolved in 500mls water
1 and 1/2 tbsp paprika
1/4 cup of plain flour
1 bunch of asparagus
1 leek
1/4 cup of lite cream
50 grams of butter all up
Extra virgin olive oil
Salt and Pepper
To make sure you can cook anything with just the addition of some meat, fish or vegetables then have a look at my Pantry Staples.
