Ingredients:
For the goulash:
2 tablespoons butter or lard
2 onions
6 garlic cloves
1/4 cup smoked paprika
1/4 cup tomato paste, organic
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
Sea salt, to taste
2 cups chicken broth, preferably homemade
2 kg stewing beef
1/3 fish sauce
1/4 cup cornstarch or arrowroot powder, organic
2 bay leaves
For the rice:
Sea salt
Filtered water
500 grams brown rice, soaked for at least 12 hours.
Garnishes:
1/2 cup sour cream or creme fraiche, organic
Black pepper, freshly ground
Sauerkraut
Directions:
Rice:
1. The night before, soak the rice in a large pan in acidic water.
2. In the morning, bring the rice to a boil and after 20 minutes of cooking, put it in the haybox and leave it there until dinner to get thoroughly cooked.
Alternatively:
cook it as per the instructions on the packaging. This will get it done faster, but the rice is less nutritious. You may consider using white rice instead of brown when you do not have the time to soak the rice overnight.
