Of course, you’ve got the right to create a mix of all the recipes you can find on the web! The essential ingredients for goulash are beef cubes, peppers, and paprika (I cheated with cayenne pepper). For the rest, you can use whatever you want!
Ingredients list for the beef goulash with cumin & beer

Cooking instructions
1. Saute beef cubes on all sides in a pan with a little olive oil. Book and clean the pan.
2. Reduce chopped onions and bacon in vinegar. Then add the diced peppers, carrots (peeled and cut in pieces), tomato paste, spices, salt and pepper.
3. Pour the beer into the pan, it should cover everything. Reduce heat and let simmer for at least 3 hours.
Tip: Beef Goulash is even better when reheated the next day. You can also cook everything in a pressure cooker.
