My cooking skills used to reach only to heating up a microwave meal. With my friend's encouragement, my 2009 New Year's resolution was to try at least one new receipe every week. I fell in love with cooking since, and find cooking the best way to quiet my mind and melt my stress. So I would like to use this blog to document my adventure, show off my results (all pictures taken by myself), and share the recipes I found or modified or created.

20090110 Beef Goulash
(SOURCE: Albert Heijn Recipes)
The recipe recommended to serve this with rice and green beans, but I chose bread instead to absorb all the yummy sauce. Sorry the photo was not that great. Serves 4.
INGREDIENTS
600g stewing beef, in big chunks
50g butter
3 onions, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tbsp paprika powder
1/2 tbsp dried Italian herbs
6 tomatoes, in big chunks
125ml creme fraiche
METHOD
1. Season the beef with salt and pepper. Heat the butter in a stew pan and brown the beef for 5 minutes. Add onion and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in paprika powder and the Italian herbs, and cook for 1 minute.
2. Add tomatoes to the pan, and season with salt and pepper. Cover the pan and simmer for about 3 hours.
3. Remove pan from heat and stir in creme fraiche. Serve with bread.
