Recipe Tips

  • If you find that there is too much oil on top of the goulash, gently remove it using a ladle or spoon.
  • Beef stock can be replaced with water if you don't have any around.
  • You can reduce the cooking time to less than an hour if you are low on time. However, you may find the flavors will not develop as much, and the beef will not be as tender.
  • You are able to make this goulash in a slow cooker and get even better results. The beef will be so tender by the time it is ready to eat.
