Any Goulash Recipes?

Do you have a good recipe for Goulash that you want to share?

I have never made Goulash.

The one magic formula I was once told and have always gone by is to be sure the weight of the onions equals the weight of the meat.

Anne,   I'm not sure if you are talking about what I would call "American midwestern goulash" or traditional Hungarian goulash...?   Standard goulash that my mother made and would be of the former variety would be a salt/pepper/tomato base mixed with sauteed celery and onion and browned hamburger.  All mixed together with macaroni and baked into a hot dish.

Hungarian goulash which I love is more of a rich, paprika-laden stew, typically using beef stew meat:

[edited to add that I definitely add the potatoes and carrots listed as 'optional' in the linked recipe.]

John, I am talking about American Goulash.

The kind with pasta, ground meat, and a tomato sauce.

I used to make the Hungarian Goulash for many years. I found the recipe in a Hungarian Cookbook that I think someone gave me.

For that, I used stew meat, lots of paprika and served over noodles.

I quit cooking that when dear hubby said he hated paprika which I thought was strange because he loved my goulash.  Years later when I no longer had that recipe I ask why and it was related to a paprika potato chip that someone had offered him a taste of.

Hi Anne,

Obviously my comment pertained to Hungarian.
