👨🍳 Yapılışı
- 1
Pat the beef cubes dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper. Heat the oil or lard in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Brown the beef in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot, until all sides are deeply browned. This searing creates flavor. Remove browned beef to a plate and set aside.
⏱️ 15-20 minutes - 2
Reduce the heat to medium. Add the chopped onions to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and translucent, about 10-15 minutes. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot as the onions release moisture.
⏱️ 10-15 minutes - 3
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until it darkens slightly. Add both the sweet and smoked paprika and the crushed caraway seeds. Stir well to combine with the onions and cook for another minute, being careful not to burn the paprika, which can make it bitter. The aroma should be fragrant.
⏱️ 2-3 minutes - 4
Return the browned beef (and any accumulated juices) to the pot. Pour in the beef broth (or water) and add the bay leaf. Stir everything together, ensuring the beef is mostly submerged. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Once simmering, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot tightly, and let the goulash braise gently for at least 2 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash more broth or water.
⏱️ 2 hours - 2 hours 30 minutes - 6
Remove the bay leaf. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. The goulash should have a rich, savory flavor with a distinct paprika note.
