Austrian Goulash Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 to 5 pounds stew cut meat*, cut into bite-sized chunks
1 cup flour
1 tablespoon salt and pepper
2 large onions, sliced thin
Olive oil for searing
2 teaspoons Hungarian Hot Paprika
1 tablespoon mild paprika
2 garlic cloves, sliced thin
Zest small lemon
1 tablespoon caraway seeds
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 large can tomato sauce (about 4 cups)
1/2 cup beef or chicken stock (or water)
Kosher salt & pepper to taste
Flour for searing meat
NOTE: My recommended cut of meat, if your butcher can provide it, is "chuck eye roast". It's a very tender cut of meat that braises beautifully.

Steps:

  • Combine flour, salt and pepper. You will need a large Dutch oven with a lid for best results. Add just enough olive oil to coat the pan and turn the heat high enough to make the oil shimmer, but not smoke. Pat the meat dry and dredge in flour, seasoned with kosher salt & cracked pepper. Add one piece of meat to the hot oil to make sure that it sizzles. Add the remaining meat, without crowding the pan and sear for about 3 to 4 minutes per side. You want a golden crust that will give the gravy great flavor. Cook the meat in batches, if necessary and set aside in a bowl-- to collect the juice. When all the meat is seared, turn the heat to medium and add a little more olive oil to the pan and cook the onion until tender-- 3 to 4 minutes. Add the sliced garlic and cook till fragrant-- 30 seconds or so. Add the tomato paste and paprika, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomato sauce, caraway seeds, lemon zest and chicken stock and stir well. Add the seared met and bring to a simmer for about 15 minutes and taste for seasoning. Adjust as necessary. If the sauce is too thick, thin with a little more chicken stock or water until it is the consistency of a gravy. Simmer for 2 hours, or you can use a slow cooker for 4 to 6 hours.
