Gulyas or Goulash
From Linda and Fred Griffith
1996

Ingredients

1 large Spanish onion, quartered

1 medium sized green bell pepper, seeded & cut into quarters

2 plump garlic cloves

2/3 cup unbleached flour

3 pounds boneless flanken or boneless short-ribs, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes

1/4 cup olive oil, plus more if needed

2 tablespoons hot Hungarian paprika

1 tablespoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

2 teaspoons dried marjoram

1 bay leaf

3 medium-sized white potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes

4 carrots, cut into 1-inch lengths

6 ounces green beans, trimmed

1/3 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish

Directions

In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, combine onion, green pepper, and garlic. Pulse until finely chopped; set aside.

Place flour in a plastic bag. Working in batches, toss beef with flour to coat thoroughly. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a Dutch oven until hot. Add half of beef and sear, browning on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl with a slotted spoon. Add 2 tablespoons oil if needed, and sear remaining beef; transfer to bowl.

Add more oil if needed, and stir in onion mixture. Stir over medium-high heat until onion softens, 3 to 4 minutes. Add paprika, salt, and peppr and cook for 1 minute. Add marjoram, bay leaf, and 1 cup water. Cook, stirring, over high heat to loosen any browned particles adhering to pot. Add beef cubes and enough water to cover.

Tightly cover and cook over high heat until water comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally to scrape bottom well, for 1 hour. Stir in potatoes and carrots; cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Skim off surface fat. Stir in green beans, cover and cook until beans and other vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes more.

To serve, ladle into heated soup plates and sprinkle generously with fresh parsley.
