Ćoravi gulaš

Ćoravi gulaš is a variety of goulash consisting of potatoes, onions, carrots, peas, and tomato juice. It is typically flavored with ground paprika, parsley, salt, pepper, bay leaves, and garlic. The stew can be thickened with flour, and it can be garnished with a dollop of sour cream. The name of the dish can be translated as blind goulash, referring to the fact that this comforting stew does not contain any meat. The dish was especially popular during the war period in the 1990s, when meat was scarce, so people had to make use of readily available ingredients.
