Making low carb simple
Instructions
- Dice onions, bell peppers, and celery into 0.5" (1.5 cm) pieces. Heat half the butter in a frying pan and fry until the vegetables are golden. Add garlic and stir.
- In a large thick-bottomed pot or pan. Add tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, water, and spices. Bring to a boil, then lower to medium heat and let simmer.
- Meanwhile, cut the meat, fry it in the remaining butter until it has turned a nice color, and add salt and pepper. Add the meat into the pan with the vegetables.
- Boil for at least two hours on low heat. Stir occasionally. Add more water if needed. Salt and pepper to taste towards the end.
- If you're using a slow cooker: Place all ingredients, except for water, in the cooker. Cook for 8 hours on low or 4 hours on high.
- Shred the green cabbage and fry in butter until golden. Lower the heat towards the end and season to taste.
- Serve the goulash with freshly fried cabbage and a dollop of sour cream or mayonnaise.
Tips
For quicker cooking time, start with a more tender cut of meat. Goulash made with lamb can be delicious, too!
Instead of butter, you can choose ghee for frying and mayonnaise for serving for a dairy-free option.
