Goulash

This is the Flashback dinner recipe.

This goulash recipe that my mom made on a regular basis was among many hotdish recipes she had in her recipe box and I still love it today.  Beef goulash  is one of the best comfort foods of the past and is also known as beef tomato hotdish up north. You can make old fashioned goulash a variety of ways so don’t worry about following the recipe just sub out what you don’t have in the cupboard for what you do.Cooking is not a science so don’t worry about measurements either.Here is the recipe.

Goulash

I started the easy goulash recipe with a pound of ground beef and fried it up with some peppers, onions and celery.You can add or omit any of the veggies above.

I added some frozen meatballs to the goulash that I had in the freezer too and cut them in half.When that was warm I added some spaghetti sauce, can or two of tomatoes. Now you can use whatever red sause or tomatoes. Tomatoe paste, puree or any other will work.  Spaghetti sauce works well in this goulash recipe because it has lots of seasoning in it already. If you would like to make sauce from scratch I have added a link to a recipe for that below. You can add salt, pepper, garlic, parsley, oregano, basil or just some Italian seasoning.You can add any other seasoning you like.Let it simmer for a bit so the flavors can get happy together.

Boil some noodles for the hotdish like goulash. The choice is up to you so whatever you have you can use.I used egg noodles but the original goulash my mom made called for plain macaroni.

When they are done add them to the sauce and toss.Warm the old fashioned goulash and it is ready to serve.Add some cheese on top when you dish it up. This is wonderful old fashioned beef goulash.

Enjoy
