Ingredients

• 500 grams chanterelle mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 large yellow onion
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 3 garlic cloves
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoon ground caraway seeds
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 100 milliliters dry white wine
• 400 milliliters vegetable broth
• 150 grams sour cream
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 0 to taste salt
• 0 to taste black pepper
• 400 grams egg noodles or spaetzle

Directions

Step 1

Clean the chanterelle mushrooms by gently brushing off any dirt with a mushroom brush or damp cloth. Avoid washing them with water as they can absorb moisture.

Step 2

Chop the yellow onion and red bell pepper into small cubes. Mince the garlic cloves. Finely chop the fresh parsley and set aside for garnishing.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet or a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it becomes translucent.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and red bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften.

Step 6

Stir in the paprika and ground caraway seeds, allowing the spices to bloom for 1 minute.

Step 7

Add the tomato paste and mix well. Cook for 1-2 minutes to develop the flavor.

Step 8

Deglaze the pan with the dry white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Allow the wine to simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 9

Add the cleaned chanterelle mushrooms to the skillet. Stir gently and cook for about 5 minutes until the mushrooms release their juices and start to soften.

Step 10

Pour in the vegetable broth, bring the mixture to a simmer, and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. The liquid should thicken slightly.

Step 11

In a small bowl, whisk the sour cream and all-purpose flour together until smooth. Temper the mixture by adding a few spoonfuls of the hot goulash liquid to it, stirring constantly.

Step 12

Slowly stir the sour cream mixture back into the goulash, ensuring it is well combined. Simmer for another 5 minutes to thicken further. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 13

Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles or spaetzle according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 14

Serve the chanterelle goulash over the cooked noodles or spaetzle, and garnish with fresh parsley.
