Instant Pot Best Hungarian Goulash

divided in half

large, cut length-wise into strands

regular, smoked or Hungarian is fine - since paprika is a key ingredient of this dish and if you wish to go heavier on it, add 1/4 cup instead

cut into bite-sized pieces, use this cut of meat for the best results and make sure it’s marbled - meaning strands of fat are visible

I used 1.5 tsp of Beef Better Than Bouillon + 1.5 cups of water

like a Pinot Noir or Cabernet Sauvignon, if you don’t wish to use wine, use another 1/2 cup of broth

I think it’s perfect this way, but use 1/4 cup of each if you want the gravy very thick

to form a slurry

to serve the Goulash over, optional, but cook separately on the stove according to package
