PRESSURE COOKER GERMAN GOULASH



Pressure Cooker German Goulash image

I always think of goulash from living in Germany when my father was in the Army there. We had a German friend who didn't speak English, but she would always bring us her traditional dishes to try and this was one of my favorites. I'm sure she cooked it in the oven or on top of the stove for hours, but having a pressure cooker speeds up the time so it's ready in less than an hour. -Johnna Johnson, Scottsdale, Arizona

Tips:

  • Use high-quality beef: Chuck roast or stew meat are great options for goulash, as they have a good amount of fat and connective tissue that will break down during cooking and add flavor to the dish.
  • Brown the beef before cooking: Browning the beef in a little oil before adding it to the pressure cooker will help to develop its flavor and give the goulash a richer color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Feel free to add other vegetables to your goulash, such as carrots, celery, potatoes, or green beans. Just be sure to cut them into bite-sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Use a good quality paprika: Paprika is a key ingredient in goulash, so be sure to use a good quality brand. Hungarian paprika is a good choice, as it has a deep, rich flavor.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the goulash before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or paprika, depending on your personal preference.
