After we put the spices on the goulash we put water on it. Its level should be a little higher than that of the food. We have to be sure not to put too much water in it otherwise it will make it more time for the meat to become soft. Then we leave the goulash to cook until the extra water that we put now will boil down. When the softness of the meat has reached ¾ of its final extent we would put the further ingredients. The szurkamarha goulash is on the fire already for about 1 ½ hours. We can see how its condition resembles now that of the sauces. At this stage we are putting inside the carrots and celery that we cut into pieces before. We put about the same quantity of water inside as before. As we see now the goulash starts to resemble a soup. Leave it to cook again for another half an hour. At this stage we put inside some garlic. We stir it. We leave it to cook. Then we put inside the potatoes and we cook the food for another 45 minutes. We check if it needs more salt or some other spice. Excellent, just a little bit more salt.
