My grandmother prepared the hearty cabbage goulash with sauerkraut and pork.

Szeged goulash approach meat with onions.

Side dishes

Drain potatoes and toss in butter.
Refine with salt, pepper and freshly chopped parsley.

Preparation step 8 
Mixing cornstarch to bind.
Tie goulash
Mix the cornstarch with a little water, bring to the boil, stir in the sour cream, let it simmer and thicken with the cornstarch to taste.
I always add a little starch water first, after boiling I can see whether the binding is sufficient.
Simmer for another 10 minutes to dissipate the starchy taste.

Preparation tip from chef Thomas Sixt
4. Prepare Szegediner with Beef Meat
For the cabbage stew with beef you need meat from the calf (wad ham).
Meat from the topside is also excellent and lean.
Have the butcher cut the meat, approx. 3 cm cubes are ideal.

Preparation tip from chef Thomas Sixt
5. Prepare Szegediner with Chicken Meat
First prepare the Gujasch without meat.
If you are satisfied with the goulash juice and the consistency of the sauerkraut, add the chicken breast pieces cut into 3 cm cubes.
Stir the stew, bring to the boil and gently simmer until the poultry is done.
You can conjure up goulash with chicken on the table in about 45 minutes.
