This recipe has been enjoyed many times on cold Midwestern days. Although it comes from a frozen package of Chateau potato dumplings, it is still an excellent recipe. I would suggest going to a deli to get the 'hot' Hungarian paprika. In my mind, this is what makes or breaks the dish.

A spicy way to dress up stew beef. My mom made this when we were kids, and we loved it. It is spicy while not mouth-burning! Can be made with cheaper cuts of beef, and comes out very tender. If it gets too thick, add a little water while it's cooking. Garnish with sour cream.
