I propose this goulash recipe following a request on our forum from a member of the association "Disciples of Escoffier". Plan for 1h30 in the oven at 180°C so the 1.2 kg beef becomes tender. The paprika is key: you need good sweet paprika, fragrant and pink-coloured, otherwise the goulash falls flat. With quartered potatoes and peeled tomatoes, you've got a dish that stays warm on the table for hours.
Ingredients for 4 servings
