Cabbage goulash the way I like it, simple, delicious and inexpensive

Cut half a white cabbage into thin, bite-sized strips and set aside. Brown the minced meat in a large pot, season generously with salt and pepper. Add the tomato paste and press the peeled garlic through a press, then mix in. Add the finely chopped white cabbage to the pot with the minced meat and fry briefly. Deglaze with the beef broth. I always add a generous pinch of caraway seeds. This isn’t necessary, but it counteracts the well-known side effects of cabbage! Simmer until the cabbage is soft or has reached the desired consistency. This takes about 40 minutes. At the end, I always add a generous amount of tomato ketchup, which gives the whole thing a sweet flavor. Whether and how much ketchup to add is up to each individual to taste. Season to taste with salt and pepper, if desired. I usually add a few potatoes. But you can also eat it simply with baguette. To each their own.
