Do you like soup? We do, but to be honest, we prefer soups that have a lot of stuff added. A homemade potato soup, chicken soup or this Simple & Easy Hungarian Goulash Soup, for example. A delicious dish my family always loved to prepare when it’s colder outside. Give us a clear soup with just a noodle or two, and you will see only sad faces.

Soups and stews are great dishes to serve all year round, but to be honest, we are cooking stuff like this here more often in fall and winter. A large bowl of this soup with a slice of bread… so good and warming! If you feel like having this soup in the height of summer, go for it! The soup is still delicious on a sunny day with 30°C outside.

Have you ever tried cold soup? It’s a perfect dish for hot summer days. If you ever want to try one we like a lot, take a look at our Salmorejo Cordobés. It’s a cold bread soup with tomato, garlic, and ham. So good!

Back to the soup here. The preparation here is very simple. You just have to add everything to the pot, fry/brown it for some time to get some nice roasting flavors, then you let the soup simmer for some time. The bell peppers and potatoes are added at the very end so that they don’t overcook. It would be a shame to end up with mushy veggies in the soup, right?! ;P

We like to cook a larger batch of this goulash soup so we can freeze leftovers. Especially in the cold (and dark) winter season, we often don’t feel like cooking something every evening. That’s when leftovers like this are perfect. Just reheat the amount you need and you are done in a few minutes.

If you like soup, you might also want to take a look at our Chorizo & White Beans Soup. It takes a little longer to prepare when using dried beans, but it’s definitely worth the effort! Our Coconut Curry Soup with Rice Noodles & Crispy Pork is a little quicker and certainly easier to prepare. So delicious as well! If you like Asian cuisine that’s a little hotter, this might be the perfect dish for you.

DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

  • Deutsch

1. Cut the meat into small cubes – the pieces should be quite a bit smaller compared to regular goulash. Peel and finely dice/chop the onion and garlic. Set aside.

2. Heat up a large Dutch oven and add some oil. Add the meat and fry until nicely browned all over – this takes a few minutes. Next, add the onion and garlic and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until soft and glossy. Add the tomato purée, both paprika powders, marjoram, and caraway seeds, stir in and let everything cook/roast for a moment. You want a few roasting flavors to develop here. Deglaze the meat with the red wine and let it cook down almost completely. Next, add the veggie stock, tomato passata, and bay leaves. Let the soup come to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover the Dutch oven, and let the soup simmer for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

3. While the soup is simmering, wash and dry the bell peppers, remove the insides and cut them into small pieces. Peel the potatoes and cut them into small pieces as well. After one hour of cooking, add the veggies to the Dutch oven and continue cooking the soup for another 20-25 minutes – the potatoes should be soft but not falling apart. Season the soup with salt and pepper to your liking and serve with some bread.

1. Das Fleisch in kleine Stücke Würfel schneiden – die Stücke sollten einiges kleiner als bei regulärem Gulasch sein. Die Zwiebel und den Knoblauch schälen und fein würfeln bzw. hacken.

2. Einen großen Topf mit etwas Öl erhitzen. Das Fleisch im heißen Öl scharf anbraten, bis es rundum schön gebräunt ist – dauert einige Minuten. Als Nächstes die Zwiebel und den Knoblauch dazugeben und für etwa 2-3 Minuten glasig andünsten. Das Tomatenmark, beide Paprikapulver, Majoran und Kümmel dazugeben, unterrühren und kurz mit anschwitzen – hier sollen sich ein paar Röstaromen entwickeln. Mit dem Rotwein ablöschen und den Wein dann weitestgehend einkochen lassen. Gemüsebrühe, Passata und Lorbeerblätter in den Topf dazugeben, alles gut verrühren und einmal aufkochen lassen. Die Hitzezufuhr reduzieren, den Topf mit einem Deckel abdecken und die Suppe für etwa 1 Stunde köcheln lassen – zwischendurch immer wieder mal umrühren.

3. Während die Suppe köchelt, die Paprika waschen, trocknen, von den Innereien befreien und in kleine Stücke schneiden. Die Kartoffeln schälen und ebenfalls in kleine Stücke schneiden. Nach der Stunde das Gemüse in den Topf dazugeben und etwa 20-25 Minuten in der Suppe garkochen – die Kartoffeln sollten weich sein, aber noch nicht zerfallen. Die Suppe nach Bedarf noch mit Salz und Pfeffer abschmecken und dann mit etwas Brot servieren.
