3. Meat for Stew and Goulash

For the veal goulash you need meat from the neck, chest, shoulder or meat from loosened front calves.

Order veal for ragout or goulash from the butcher.

Let the butcher or butcher cut the meat into 3-4 cm cubes and process the meat quite quickly.

4. Veal Goulash Viennese Style

The classic Viennese veal cream goulash is bound with sour cream and flour and seasoned with lemon zest and lemon juice.

Brief description:

–> Roast onion cubes in oil until light brown,

–> Add paprika powder

–> Deglaze with white wine and vegetable stock, add meat, season, cover and at best stew in the oven (real braise) until soft.  

–> Remove meat, bring sauce to the boil, mix sour cream (1/8) with flour (20 g) well and refine the sauce with it.

Important:

–> The sauce must boil strongly for a few minutes so that the flour taste evaporates.

–> In addition there are Nockerl which are called regionally differently also Spätzle.

The dumpling recipe can be found in the side dishes.
