Goulash:

  1. Put the finely chopped onions to simmer in a big deep pan with high sides on a moderately moderate heat in olive oil. Fry until they become transparent.

  3. Add rosemary, thyme, salt, black pepper to taste, and finally the wine, wait for the alcohol to evaporate for about 7–8 minutes. Stew the meat and continue stirring periodically on low heat.

  4. After the specified time, add the tomato concentrate diluted in hot water and bay leaf.

  5. Let it simmer for 80–90 minutes on low heat and occasionally stir and add warm water as required, be sure to cover the pan. Cook on low heat.

  6. 25 minutes before the end, to control the taste, add spices and red ground paprika, and cook until the end. Control the liquid in the stew.

Gnocchi:

NOTE:

  • To make cooking easier for you and if you don't like making homemade gnocchi dough, buy a ready-made package at the store.

  • If you like a thicker sauce, add another finely chopped onion.

  • You can add some hot spices to this stew if you like hot peppers or crushed hot peppers.

  • The longer you cook the goulash, the softer and juicier the meat will be, like butter.

  • During cooking, do not let your meat burn, always stir occasionally on low heat.

  • After adding the tomatoes, control the thickness of the sauce and add a little water as needed.

  • If you accidentally made a mistake and poured more water than you should. There is a solution, mix 1 Tablespoon of flour with a 70 ml water in a cup, without lumps, add to the stew, mix well and cook for the next 7 minutes with occasional stirring on low heat.

  • Store the rest of the food in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
