Hearty Beef Goulash Soup
This is a really hearty soup that’s cheap to make and that can be thrown together in a few minutes. It’s perfect for a cold winter’s day or even a school or work lunch.
Ingredients
400 g lean beef strips, diced into small pieces
1 onion, chopped
1 red onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 red pepper
1 green pepper
1 yellow pepper
2 tins chopped tomatoes
2-3 vegetable stock cubes
500 ml water
3 large spuds, peeled and cubed
handful of fresh baby spinach leaves
2 tbsp paprika
3 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp chilli powder (optional)
2 carrots, peeled and diced (optional)
2 tbsp rapeseed oil
Instructions
1
Heat the oil in a large pot and add the beef, onions, garlic and carrots, if using them. Cook until the beef starts to brown.
2
Add the sliced peppers and cook for 2 minutes.
3
Add the paprika and ground pepper. Stir well.
4
Add the rest of the ingredients, except the spinach, and stir.
5
Bring to the boil and then simmer for half an hour, until the beef is tender.
6
Add the spinach just before serving and stir. Taste and serve if happy. This can be frozen for up to 2 months and is delicious with a hunk of bread.
