• 800 grams potatoes
• 2 medium onion
• 3 cloves garlic cloves
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 2 medium carrots
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 liters vegetable broth
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 piece bay leaf
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into medium-sized chunks. Set aside in a bowl of cold water to prevent browning.

Step 2

Peel and finely chop the onions. Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Core and dice the bell pepper. Peel and slice the carrots into rounds.

Step 3

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the onions to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened and translucent.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic, red bell pepper, and carrots. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

Sprinkle in the smoked paprika, sweet paprika, and ground cumin. Toast the spices for 1 minute to release their flavors.

Step 7

Add the tomato paste to the pot, stirring well to coat the vegetables evenly.

Step 8

Drain the potatoes and add them to the pot. Stir everything to combine the potatoes with the spiced vegetables.

Step 9

Pour in the vegetable broth and add the bay leaf. Season with salt and black pepper.

Step 10

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let the goulash simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 11

Remove and discard the bay leaf. Taste the goulash and adjust the seasoning if needed.

Step 12

Serve the goulash hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley, and enjoy!
