Serves:
Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 cup red wine (optional)

- 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 bay leaves
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
-
In the same pot, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent and fragrant.

Stir in the tomato paste and cook for another minute.
-
Return the beef to the pot and add the beef broth, red wine (if using), smoked paprika, caraway seeds, dried thyme, and bay leaves. Stir to combine.
-
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover. Let simmer for 1 hour.
-
After an hour, add the cubed potatoes to the pot and season with salt and pepper. Cover and continue to simmer for another hour, or until the beef is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
-
Remove the bay leaves from the pot and taste the goulash. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
-
Serve the beef goulash hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
