Those born during the Soviet era remember with longing the taste of simple, but unique by today's standards, dishes.
Some of them were served in every canteen, such as goulash with gravy. You could choose anything for a side dish – buckwheat, mashed potatoes or pasta. Here's how to cook it.
You will need:
- beef - 500 g;
- carrots - 1 pc.;
- flour - 3 tbsp;
- onion - 1 pc.;
- water (broth) - 1 liter;
- bay leaf - 1 pc.;
- pepper and salt to taste;
- tomato paste - 2 tbsp. l.
How to cook
1. Cut the beef into large strips and fry in vegetable oil, then add the onion cut into rings or half rings. Fry together for 5-7 minutes.
2. Transfer the mixture into a saucepan, add water or broth so that there is twice as much liquid as meat.
3. Melt the butter in a clean frying pan and fry the flour in it until a nutty aroma appears, then add the tomato paste and mix the ingredients, add water (broth).
4. When the lumps dissolve, add salt and pepper and pour the sauce over the meat. Simmer over low heat for 1.5 hours.
5. Add bay leaf 10 minutes before it is ready.
Bon appetit!
