Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 medium yellow onions or 1 large onion, sliced
- 1/4 cup smoked Spanish paprika
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 1/2 cups beef bone broth or low-sodium beef broth/stock
- 1 bay leaf
- 3 pounds beef chuck eye roast, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch piece
- 1 (10-ounce) package frozen sweet peas
- 1/2 cup sour cream
Instructions
- Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until simmering. Add onion, paprika, salt, tomato paste, garlic, and cumin. Cook, stirring often until the onions are softened and lightly browned (about 8-10 minutes).
- Stir in cornstarch. Mix until the cornstarch is evenly distributed.
- Add beef broth and stir until the mixture is thickened, scraping up any browned bits (about 2-3 minutes).Â
- Transfer the mixture into a slow cooker. Add bay leaf. Lightly season beef with salt and pepper and add to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 5-7 hours.Â
- Let the cooking liquid settle for a few minutes and remove as much fat as possible from the surface using a big spoon. Remove the bay leaf, as well.Â
- Reserve 1 cup of the cooking liquid in a small bowl. Add peas to the slow cooker and cover it for another 5 minutes.Â
- Add sour cream into the small bowl. Mix with cooking liquid until well blended.Â
- Once the peas are tender, stir the sour cream mixture back into the slow cooker. Serve the goulash over egg noodles, rice, or potatoes. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
