Hungarian goulash can be served as a stew or as soup, depending on how much water you add to the goulash. The traditional Hungarian spices are what give this Goulash authentic and robust flavour. When serving the goulash as a stew traditionally you would add pasta, in this case, gluten-free pasta. If you decide to serve this amazing goulash dish as soup serve it up with the popular gluten-free pull apart rosemary soft rolls Enjoy!
