Treat your ingredients with care...
- Beef chuck — For a more tender result, choose well-marbled beef chuck and cut it into evenly sized cubes.
- Chimichurri sauce — If you can't find chimichurri sauce, you can make your own by combining fresh parsley, garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
Tips & Tricks
- For a richer flavor, marinate the beef cubes in red wine and chimichurri sauce for a few hours before cooking.
- Serve the Argentinian Gulyás with crusty bread or over a bed of fluffy white rice to soak up the delicious sauce.
- Feel free to add additional vegetables like carrots or potatoes for extra texture and flavor.
- If you prefer a thicker stew, you can mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with cold water and stir it into the stew during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and enjoyed the next day, as the flavors will continue to develop.
Serving advice
Serve the Argentinian Gulyás in deep bowls, allowing the aromatic stew to take center stage. Accompany it with a side of crusty bread or fluffy white rice to complete the meal.
Presentation advice
Garnish the Argentinian Gulyás with a sprinkle of fresh parsley on top to add a pop of color. Serve it in rustic bowls or on a large platter, allowing the rich, savory stew to be the star of the presentation.
