Method

  1. Heat oil in large pan and fry the beef for 5 minutes until golden. Add onion and caraway seeds and sauté until soft.
  2. Add paprika and stir for 1 minute then pour over the beef stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer until meat is just tender, about 40 minutes.
  3. Add the garlic, vegetables and tomatoes. Simmer for a further 15-20 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Allow to cool slightly then purée half of the mixture in a food processor until roughly chopped. Return to the pan and add a little more water if necessary to make a thick soup consistency.
  4. Reheat and serve topped with sour cream and parsley.
    • Freezing and defrosting guidelines

      Make the soup, then leave to cool at room temperature. Freeze (without garnishes or toppings) in a rigid container, leaving a bit of space for expansion, for up to 1-3 months. Reheat either from frozen or defrost in the fridge overnight. Once piping hot, add toppings or garnishes and serve.
