1 1/2 pounds yellow onions (chopped)
1/4 cup quality genuine imported Hungarian sweet paprika
1 1/2 pounds stewing beef ( , cut into 1/2 inch pieces )
5 cloves garlic (,minced)

2 tomatoes (,diced)

HUNGARIAN GOULASH I

Hungarian Goulash I image

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.

Tips:

Use high-quality beef: The quality of the beef you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your goulash. Look for beef that is well-marbled and has a deep red color.
Brown the beef in batches: Browning the beef in batches will help to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming dry.
Use a variety of vegetables: The more vegetables you use, the more flavorful your goulash will be. Some good options include onions, carrots, celery, potatoes, and peppers.
Simmer the goulash for at least 1 hour: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
Serve the goulash with a dollop of sour cream and some crusty bread: This is the traditional way to serve goulash, and it's delicious!
