Hungarian food from a nice little old lady

Well today was her interesting since I have been reading a cook book called "Little old lady recipes" by Meg Favreau and what I found most interesting about this book in addition to the awesome and very funny "little old ladies who contributed there recipes was that this book is a melting pot of recipes from every where. I recommend it for cooks who like comfort food. Now onto the world food part lets talk Hungary. This is the first Hungarian dish I have made but I made a dish called goulash and it is a Hungarian stew that is made with steak in a sauce composed of sour cream, paprika, onions, salt, flour, butter, and red wine (I used burgundy). With only these minimal ingredients they sure made one amazing dish but here's my tips. When you have to brown the meat and onions I throw them in a big pot and cover until the onions soften and the meat brown than let it reduce leaving some liquid. Oh and also the recipe calls for 6 onions don't worry this may sound like a lot but onions shrink during cooking. Finally use a large casserole to cook it in (the recipe is on pg 94). The final results were amazing the steak was very tender and onions were soft, the sauce had a savory flavor with a hint of wine.
