Background

This beef goulash stew with greens is a variation on the Hungarian goulash stew. With the added green (peas, beans and kale) it becomes healthier. Serve it with boiled potatoes, rice, pasta, gnocchi or galuska or simply bread.

Ingredients

450g stewing beef, diced
2 Tbsp sunflower oil
1 onion
1 clove of garlic
1 carrot
½ red bell pepper
1 tomato, chopped
1 Tbsp paprika
1 tsp caraway seeds
500 ml beef stock
1 bay leaf
½ cup frozen green peas
½ cup frozen green peas
I handful chopped kale or cavolo nero
2 Tbsp chopped green parsley

Instructions

Finely the onion and garlic. Cut the carrot and red pepper into bites-sized chunks.
Heat half of the oil in a large, heavy saucepan, then cook the beef for 3-5 minutes until it changes colour, then transfer to a plate.
Heat the remaining oil in the same pan gently sauté the onion and garlic for about 8 minutes, then add the chopped vegetables. Add the paprika and carraway seeds and stir for a minute. Then pour in the stock - it should just cover the veggies and meat. Add the bay leaf, bring to the boil, then cover and gently simmer for about 45 minutes, until tender.
Add the greens and cook for a further 3-5 minutes.
Serve with the chopped parsley.
