Guláš

Traditional guláš is a hearty meat stew served with a dark red sauce that is heavily seasoned with paprika. Through history, this dish with Hungarian origins has become one of the most common meals in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The two countries have created their unique version, slightly different from the original. It usually consists of beef, pork, or game meat, browned and simmered alongside onions for hours until the broth thickens. There are numerous varieties of this rustic dish, including the ones with different meat cuts, thicker and thinner broth types, potatoes, caraway seeds, marjoram, and even sausages and mushrooms. Guláš is a common restaurant dish, and it is traditionally accompanied by tender steamed dumplings or plain bread.
