Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp Trex or vegetable oil
  • 1 onion - diced, chunky
  • 3 bell peppers - cut into chunks
  • 2 celery - sticks, sliced
  • 100 g mushrooms - I use smallish ones, cut in half
  • 700 g potatoes - white, firm, peeled and cut into large dice
  • 800 ml water
  • 1 tbsp tomato puree
  • 2 tbsp paprika
  • 2 bay leaves
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 tsp cornflour

Instructions

  • Heat the oil and Trex in a large saucepan. The Trex is optional, but it adds an unctuousness to the final sauce.
  • Sauté the onions, celery and pepper for about 3-4 minutes, until barely beginning to soften.
  • Add the tomato puree, potatoes, mushrooms, bay leaves and paprika, stirring gently to coat everything.
  • Cover with water, bring to a boil then turn down to a gentle simmer.
  • Cook until the potatoes are just tender.
  • Season generously to taste.
  • To thicken sauce, whisk 3 tsp cornflour with 2 tbsp cold water. Bring the Goulash back up to a boil and stir in the cornflour slurry. Stir until thick.
  • Serve with boiled rice or noodles.
  • Top with some vegan sour cream and chopped parsley.

Please note that where the recipe asks for milk, butter or yogurt, this refers to any plant-based version that you prefer.
