Iron Curtain Goulashsuppe is a traditional Hungarian soup that has been enjoyed for generations. This hearty soup has a rich beefy flavor, thanks to the use of chuck and beef broth, and is filled with tender chunks of potato. The addition of hot Hungarian paprika adds just the right amount of spice to the dish, while the vinegar and tomato paste give it a slight tangy kick.

7.Add the potatoes to the pot about 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time. Stir occasionally.
8.Once the beef is tender and the potatoes are cooked, remove the pot from the heat and let it cool down slightly.
9.Serve the Goulashsuppe hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
