Someone asked me for the recipe for this. It's vegetarian, delicious, and serves two generously.
1 tsp sunflower oil (or whatever you normally use for frying; nothing too strong, though)
1 onion, chopped.
1 red (bell) pepper, chunked.
1 clove garlic, crushed.
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp caraway seeds
375g pumpkin or squash, thickly sliced, peeled and de-seeded.
1 large carrot, thick sliced,
75g red lentils, rinsed.
450ml stock (vegetable if you're vegetarian, of course; otherwise chicken would also work)
4 tsp tomato puree
salt and pepper to taste
plain yoghurt to finish.
Preheat oven to 180ยบ C.
Heat oil, brown onions (roughly 5 mins). Add red pepper, garlic, paprika and caraway seeds. Stir in and fry for 1 min.
Add everything else bar the yoghurt, and bring to the boil. Cover and cook in the oven for about an hour.
To serve, top bowls of goulash with yoghurt and sprinkle on extra caraway seeds and paprika. Serve with - well, crusty bread, rice, potatoes, couscous, dumplings etc, and a green salad would work if you feel the need for extra vitamins...
