Gorički gulaš

Gorički gulaš is a traditional stew originating from the Podravina region. The word gorički in its name suggests a connection with gorica, a local name for vineyard, so it is safe to conclude that this stew is commonly prepared during the grape harvest. The stew is made with a combination of veal, potatoes, onions, tomatoes, paprika (sweet or hot), and red wine. It is recommended to serve it with freshly baked bread on the side. If desired, gorički gulaš can be additionally thickened with flour.
