Ingredients
 

  • 600 g Beef goulash (ma) fresh
  • 1 tbsp Clarified butter
  • 1 Onion
  • 1 tbsp Paprika powder
  • 500 ml Vegetable broth
  • 2 Paprika
  • 1 Leek
  • 3 Carrots
  • 3 Potato
  • 3 Tomatoes
  • 1 Chilli pepper
  • 2 Clove of garlic

for seasoning

  • Salt pepper
  • 1 tsp Tschubritza
  • Parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cut the beef into cubes of the same size and brown in hot clarified butter for about 10 minutes.
  • In the meantime, peel the onion, cut it into small pieces, add to the meat and fry briefly. Sprinkle paprika over the beef, fry briefly and immediately deglaze with vegetables or beef stock. If you fry paprika too long, it tastes bitter. Season with salt, pepper and Tschubritza. Cover and simmer for about 80 minutes over a mild heat.
  • In the meantime, wash, scrape and slice the carrots. Halve the bell pepper, remove the white seeds and skin and cut into small pieces. Peel, wash and dice the potatoes. Clean the leek and cut into fine rings. Finely chop the chilli pepper and garlic.
  • Put a saucepan with water on it. Slightly scratch the tomatoes crosswise with a sharp knife on the top and soak in boiling water for a short time, about 1 minute. Pour into a sieve and rinse with cold water. Immediately afterwards peel off the tomato skin. Quarter, core and finely chop tomatoes.
  • About 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time, add the cut vegetables (without tomatoes) to the beef and stir in. After another 15 minutes, add the tomato pieces and let the whole thing simmer. Season again with the specified spices.

Serving

  • Spread in a preheated plate or bowl and serve sprinkled with finely chopped parsley.

info

  • This dish is eaten in Bulgaria with white bread or peasant bread. This is served with "Scharena Sol" in German "Buntes Salz" - a mixture of spices, possibly for seasoning, lactic acid dill pickles and / or pickled cucumbers, and a well-tempered red wine.
  • The Bulgarian stew tastes delicious, piquant and tasty, especially when it is pulled through. The next day, warmed up, it tastes even better to me.
  • Tschubritza is the universal national spice of Bulgaria. Tschubritza is simple summer savory (Satureja hortensis) or also known as garden savory. You can now buy this herb garden savory (Bulgarian “Tschubritza”) in grocery stores, or you can order it online. If you can't get garden savory, just season with savory.
  • Have fun trying it out and enjoy your meal!
