Hungarian Goulash
When you hear the word Goulash you never think of making it like this. I have made this Hungarian Goulash for years and I always serve it over hot buttered noodles…..so good! Ok to be honest, I mix the hot buttered noodles and saucy beef mixture together so that every single noodle is covered in that delicious sauce! This is made completely on top of the stove and it is such an easy meal to prepare. This was another hit with the Grandkids!
You will never guess where I found this recipe all those years ago. It was in a book called BEST RECIPES by Ceil Dyer. I am sure some of my followers may have this book too, it is very popular. If you ever come across it, buy it immediately. It features all the best recipes from the backs of boxes, bottles, cans and jars. This original Hungarian Goulash recipe was first published in the Pet Gold cookbook back in 1932.
Ingredients
In a large, deep frying pan over medium
heat, brown the beef in the oil.
Mix together the flour, paprika,
salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Add the mixture to the meat.
Stir to cover the meat with the dry mixture.
Add the onion, tomatoes and
water, stirring to combine.
Bring to a boil then turn to a simmer.
Cover, cooking for one hour
and stirring occasionally.
After one hour goulash will look like this.
Add the evaporated
milk and mix well.
Stirring frequently, simmer
uncovered for 15 minutes.
Serve over hot buttered noodles.

Hmm I may have to try this. Goulash isn’t my favorite meal but my husband LOVES it (such a staple for Eastern European families! 🙂 I’m really intrigued by that cookbook, it sounds like it’d be a treasure trove! I think I might hunt that one down.
There are some fabulous recipes in it!
Looks like an interesting version of beef stew.. cut up some hot peppers and a little hot sauce and dig in!
This is an original 1932 Hungarian Goulash recipe that is cooked in just 1 hour! Such easy recipes back then!
Still looks delicious!
Thanks!
YUM!!! I have been hungry for goulash lately too.
This is an easy meal!
I know. I have made it before too. You and I tend to like a lot of similar foods. 🙂
Awesome!
Nice one
Thanks!
I had goulash in Budapest last year and it was delicious. I’ll definitely give this a go 🙂 thank you
You are so welcome! I hope you like it as much as we do!
Actually, this the first thing I think of when I heard Goulash because my ex-husband was first generation Hungarian. I don’t care for it (despise gravy) but I know authentic goulash.
It was a total shock to me the first time we tries it many years ago. I wish I despised gravy….lol
I will try to post a Hungarian casserole for you. It’s so good, but not figure friendly lol
This is one of the dishes I grew up eating. I still make it from time to time. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome! I keep wanting to try it over rice but I am such a pasta junkie!
I’ve never had hungarian food before…this looks incredible appetizing!! Gunna have to try this 🙂
It is so good! You know it has to be if my 4 and 7 year old grandchildren liked it…lol
Thank you!
Ok, that’s it. I’m coming over to your place to live. 🙂
Hahahaha sound good!
Make sure there is some ready!
This reminds me of the succulent beef stroganoff (oh, those noodles) I used to love served in my residential college dining hall at Yale (yes, I was in the same residential college as Brett Kavanaugh, though he was a year ahead of me and I have zero memory of the guy–for better or for worse).
Hahahahaha you crack me up!
Yes, people laugh at me all the time…;) I am working on a post about my interview with the NYT about Kavanaugh (which is how I found out we overlapped for three years).
I can’t wait to read it!
Thank you Diane. I want to try this.
