My grandmothers were both from Hungary and were excellent cooks. They taught me that the secret to making true Hungarian dishes is using a lot of onions and LOTS of sweet Hungarian paprika. This recipe is very flavorful and filled with lots of onions, roasted peppers and mushrooms. When the beef is all eaten, this sauce is so good that my family asks me to serve any leftover sauce and vegetables with noodles (they actually never even miss the beef :) * I took the photo of the dish before I stirred in the sour cream, so that you could see the vegetables clearly..
