Welcome to my Dutch Oven Hungarian Beef Goulash Recipe. Bring some warmth into your kitchen with this delicious Hungarian Beef Goulash Recipe.
This is made with lots of classic ingredients, is super easy to make and will keep you full for hours.
Just for a minute picture the scene…..I wake up at 6.30am to breast feed my 4 month old son, it is freezing beyond freezing and Dominic wakes up our eldest son Kyle so that he has chance to get ready for school as the school bus picks him up outside our house at 7.30am.
I then hid under the covers until it got warm enough to even contemplate getting up and dressed.
Then via Facebook I saw a video showing that we had snow for the first time (just 30 minutes down the road) in the 9 years since we moved to the Algarve.
No wonder I felt so cold!
Add to this the fact that our homes are built for the super hot summer season and have no central heating and one small fire and I feel like I am going to turn into a snowman!
So there is only one thing for it, the one thing I can’t have in the summer because it warms up the house too much and this is the oven on full blast and getting out the Dutch Oven for a delicious mid week casserole.
In our version of Hungarian Beef Goulash we will be adding a lot more wine, more potatoes and more onions.
It is then PERFECT for warming up your house and giving you some delicious home cooked comfort food during the cold months.
I also love it because it is perfect for family food that you enjoy around the table while you have some special family time.
Plus if you are feeling the cold (like I am), then it is great for warming you up and when you have finished eating all the good bits you can finish off by dunking some delicious bread into it.
Also in summer I always really miss my Dutch Oven as it makes the house so hot that it goes into the cupboard and stays there between May and October so it is lovely to make full use of it at this time of the year.
