The word ‘goulash’, per Wikipedia, is primarily a soup, also existing as stew, usually made of beef, onions, veggies, spices, and paprika. The name originates from the Hungarian gulyas which is the word for a cattle stockman or hersman. In Slovakia goulash is also popular and the word “guláš” means mishmash.
AC ART of Food however has taken this traditional dish up a couple of notches. Substituting beef for shrimp and making the onions caramelized and incorporating them into the potatoes are pretty much the main adjustments. Check out this hearty yet inexpensive meal in a more sophisticated package 😉
