Original Hungarian Goulash Recipe

Heat vegetable oil in a cast iron pan until very hot.

Add carrots to the pan and cook for 5 to 10 minutes until slightly caramelized.

Add chopped onions to the pan with the carrots and cook until they soften.

Add the stew beef to the pan and stir to combine with the onions and carrots, allowing the meat to release its juices.

Cook the meat on high heat for about 20 minutes, stirring frequently.

Lower the heat to low and let the mixture cook for about 50 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.

After 1.5 hours, add minced garlic to the mixture.

Add black pepper and stir well.

Prepare mashed potatoes as a side dish (or rice/pasta if preferred).

After 2.5 hours of cooking, add Hungarian paprika and salt to the mixture.

Pour in beef broth and let the goulash cook for an additional 20 minutes before serving.
