Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 170°C (340°F).
  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil or lard, add the diced chuck steak and season well with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes, until browned all over.
  3. Add the sliced onions and red bell pepper and cook for 3 minutes, stirring often. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the Hungarian paprika, smoked paprika and ground caraway seeds, mix well and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often.
  4. Add the tomato paste, diced tomatoes, beef stock, balsamic vinegar and brown sugar. Mix well and bring to a boil.
  5. Cover with a lid and transfer to the oven for 2 1/2 hours, until the beef is fork-tender. Add more beef stock if the sauce reduces too much.
  6. Take the goulash out of the oven and check the seasoning.
