    Preparation Steps

    1

    Finely chop the onions. Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Sauté the onions until translucent.

    2

    Add the minced garlic and Hungarian sweet paprika. Stir quickly to prevent burning.

    3

    Add the diced beef to the pot and sear on all sides until browned.

    4

    Add the diced tomatoes and bell pepper. Pour in the water. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    5

    Cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 2 hours, or until the beef is very tender. Stir occasionally and add more water if needed to prevent sticking.

    6

    Meanwhile, cook the ribbon pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package directions. Drain well.

    7

    Serve the beef stew over the freshly cooked ribbon pasta. Offer pickled vegetables (savanyúság) as a side.
