1/4 cup quality genuine imported Hungarian sweet paprika

1 1/2 pounds stewing beef (, cut into 1/2 inch pieces)

5 cloves garlic (,minced)

2 red bell peppers (,seeded/membranes removed, cut into 1/2 inch chunks)

1 yellow bell pepper (,seeded/membranes removed, cut into 1/2 inch chunks)

2 tomatoes (,diced)

2 carrots (,diced)

2 medium potatoes (,cut into 1/2 inch chunks)

Instructies

1. Melt the pork lard or butter/oil in a Dutch oven or other heavy soup pot over medium high heat and cook the onions until beginning to brown, about 7-10 minutes.

2. Add the beef and cook until the beef is just starting to brown, 7-10 minutes.

3. Add the bell peppers, tomatoes, and garlic and cook for another 6-8 minutes.

4. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the paprika, salt, pepper and caraway (if using) (note: paprika becomes bitter if at all scorched). Add the beef broth, bay leaf, return to the stove and bring to a boil.
