Im no chef but this recipe was easy to follow. My goulash looks kinda funny tho 🤔.
I don’t even know what goulash is, but my friend told me to try this. I follow the instructions, and it smells good!
Eh, not what I expected. Thought it would be more like the one my grandma made. Kinda frustrating.
Is it okay if I sub chicken for beef? My family doesn’t like beef. Anyone tried that?
Sure, you can sub chicken! I think it’ll taste fine, just might be a bit different. My mom does that sometimes.
It’s just a stew, right? Why call it goulash? Maybe I just don’t get it?
Goulash is more than just a stew! It’s got a rich history and flavors that set it apart. You’re definitely missing out if you only see it as stew!
I forgot the bay leaves and it still was tasty. So it’s pretty forgiving!
This goulash recipe is bomb! So flavorful and a hit with my family. Will definitely make it again.
It turned out way too oily for my taste. I might try using less olive oil next time.
I totally agree! It was really oily for me too. Maybe try less oil for sure.
Yum! I added some extra spices and it was delish! Goulash night is now a thing in our house.
Mmm, I love goulash. Makes me think of home…but where’s the noddles???
