Hungarian Goulash

My husband is back home for a little while now that he finished his clinical rotation in Florida. So he helped me pick out this recipe. :)

Ingredients: (Serves 6)

1lb Extra-lean Ground Beef

1 Large Onion

1 Garlic Clove, minced

1/2c Ketchup

2T Worcestershire Sauce

1T Brown Sugar

1-1.5t Salt

2t Paprika

1/2t Dry Mustard

1c Water

1/2 Bag of Frozen Corn

1/4c Flour

1/4c Cold Water

Instead of browning the beef before putting it in the slow cooker, I figured it would be better to put in raw. Then break it into pieces after it cooks. First of all, then the meat would be chunkier for the goulash. Second of all, it takes less time. :)

Slice the onion. Once it was done the onion pieces were a little larger than we liked. I suggest chopping it more than slicing.

Place onion on top of ground beef.

Combine garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, salt, paprika, mustard, and 1c water

Pour sauce over meat and onions

I added my own ingredient to this meal. I figured corn would add volume and mix well with the goulash. Add corn to slow cooker


Cover and cook on Low for 5-6 hours.

Dissolve flour in 1/4c cold water.

Stir into meat mixture.

Cook on high 10-15 minutes, or until slightly thickened.

Siver over noodles or rice.

This version of goulash was pretty good. It had an interesting flavor. I didn't expect it to be a little sweet.
