Also cut the tomato in small pieces and put aside. Rinse and dry the meat and cut into 2-3 cm pieces and put aside
Heat up a dutch oven or other thick bottomed big cooking pot to medium hot with the lard or butter and put in the onions. Fry them for a minute or so then add the paprika powders and the caraway powder while stirring and then about 50-75 ml of water
Let this fry for about 10-15 minutes, stir regularly and if needed add more water, it should remain moist enough not to burn!! then add the meat while stirring and bake it nicely all around untill there is no more red visible, takes a few more minutes
Add the paprika fritter, the cut tomato and stir well, then add bay leaf, squashed garlic cloves and a good amount of pepper and salt with another 50-100 ml of water (or untill everything is almost under water), lower the heat and leave to simmer for 90-120min (untill tender) with a closed lid, stirring every half hour or so
Then cut the celery root, the carrot, the parsley root, potatoes and the half bell pepper into 1-2cm blocks or rings and add them to the broth. Also rinse and chop the parsley and celery leaves and add to broth. Then add 1-1.5 ltr of water and 1 tsp salt. Leave this to simmer for another 40-50 min and bring to taste with some more salt (you'll need some) and ground pepper if needed
Meanwile in a bowl, beat the egg well with water and salt with a big fork then slowly start adding bits of flower while beating untill you get a consistend soft, sticky dough. Then leave it for about 10 minutes. When the soup is ready stir it some more before use
Then quickly add small 1/5 tsp bits of dough with the edge of a teaspoon and hold it in the soup untill it releases, be quick so they can all cook about the same time. Note that you'll probably only need half of the dough to have enough dumplings for this recipe, use the rest elsewhere or just make more soup. Leave the dumplings for about 6-10 minutes or untill they all float. Try not to overcook so they remain nice and soft
After that say : jó étvágyat ; and enjoy your gulyásleves!
Gulyásleves (Goulash Soup) When I met my Hungarian girlfriend I soon learned that all my life I had been eating something completely different than I thought. The "goulash" I ate throughout my life (the one you can find in Dutch snackbars and households) resembles more to a poor imitation of what in Hungary they call pörkölt. Hungarian goulash soup is a beef dish cooked with onions, Hungarian paprika powder, tomatoes, and some green pepper. Carrot, parsley root, potatoes, and pinched noodles (csipetke in Hungarian) are also added. Pasta or pastry dishes, especially the ones made with cottage cheese (pancake, dumplings, strudel) go down well after the heavy soup.
