    This was ok on the night that I cooked it, nothing special. But reheating it the next day... wow! So much better. I suggest making this a day in advance to really taste the flavours.

    Really enjoyed this, very easy to make. I cooked it in slow cooker and the meat was so tender. Would make again.

    I put the flour, paprika, mixed herbs and other seasonings in a plastic bag and added the beef so it was will coated. After browning the beef add a good slosh of red wine. I didn't use caraway seeds. It was very tasty.

    I was disappointed with this. The meat wasn't as tender as I'd hoped so don't think I'll make again.

    Lovely recipe. Used fennel seeds as didn't have any carraway and it was lovely. Also added a spoonful of tomato puree to thicken the sauce and that worked well.

    In case anyone fancies making a traditional Hungarian beef paprikash (called 'porkolt' and not 'goulas', which is in fact a soup made from the same base), I'd mention that it doesn't have mushrooms, garlic or caraway seeds, although I'm sure they are lovely addition. It also only has a few tomatoes not a whole tin of them. Adding some red wine makes it truly authentic however. The traditional method is also slightly different: you first fry the onions, then stir in the paprika, add and brown the meat, add some wine, then some water (to almost cover the meat), turn the heat down a bit and cook for a couple of hours (keep topping up the water). Check seasoning. Jo etvagyat!

    Cooked this tonight for a mid week family supper. Followed the recipe but cooked in my slow cooker for about 7 hours and we all really enjoyed it. I did use half normal paprika and half smoked paprika. The sauce was quite runny but we like lots of juice! I may use some red wine next time and some tomato puree to thicken it up a bit. My husband thinks it needs some bread (Nan?) to mop up the juices! I will make this again.

    Really easy and tasty meal. I used cumin seeds as I didn't have caraway seeds. It worked really well.
