My mom made the best goulash with ground beef that I have ever tasted. I have tried and tried to match hers but I failed to do so. When I saw this recipe I thought that it came close but I am sure she always added celery and onion. Maybe a pinch of brown sugar and prepared mustard too. Mom is gone now but I will continue to try and duplicate her recipe. She always made it from scratch and never followed any written instruction. We talked about it on occasion but I never wrote down her helpful hints. I wish I had now.
* 1 lb. ground beef
* 1 med. onion
* 1/2 c. chopped green pepper
* 2 (8 oz.) cans tomato sauce or 1 (1 lb. 13 oz.) can undrained tomatoes and 1 can tomato sauce and omit water
* 2 c. water
* 2 c. macaroni noodles (6-8 oz.)
* 2 tbsp. sugar
* 2 tsp. salt
INSTRUCTIONS
In Dutch oven, brown ground beef. Drain excess fat. Add onion and green pepper.
Continue frying until tender. Add rest of ingredients. Cover; reduce to simmer 20
minutes or so until macaroni is tender. The beef goulash recipe serves 4-6 persons.
