This is an authentic Hungarian Goulash with a concentration of tomatoes from our Ketchup and slight kick from the Chilli Ketchup. Adding Butternut Squash at this time of year gives this comforting dish an Autumnal flash of inspiration.

Method

  1. While the oven is pre-heating to 160Cc/gas 3. Soften the onion and garlic in a flame-proof casserole (rapeseed oil).
  2. Add the beef cubes and keep them moving to brown, then coat everything in 2 tbsp of plain flour.
  3. Shake in the Paprika, add the Sumak and a good squeeze of tomato purée.
  4. Stir in the stock then add the peppers, carrot.
  5. Add the stock to just cover the contents (more if needed). Stir everything together with 4 tbsp of our thick Real Tomato Ketchup and one or two shakes of Chilli Ketchup (more to taste if you prefer a little extra kick).
  6. Finally, the chopped tomatoes, cover and into the oven for one and a half to 2 hours
  7. Add the tomatoes, wine and beef stock and a glass of white wine. Cover and bake in the oven for 1 hr 20 mins.
  8. Remove carefully, and add the cubed squash for 25 minutes (if using), simmer on the hob.
  9. Season. Stir in the chopped parsley and cream. Rest for 5 minutes and serve with rice or chunky bread.
