3. Score crosses into the tomatoes, immerse them in boiling water, then remove and skin them. Cut out the stem ends and cut the flesh into 2-cm dice. Add the diced tomatoes, red wine at room temperature, tomato purée, 2 tsp salt, sugar, both types of paprika, caraway seeds, marjoram, bay leaves, juniper berries, cloves and lemon zest and, with the measuring beaker in place, boil with the reverse button/1 hour 20 minutes/100 °C/speed setting 1.
4. Mix the flour into the room-temperature beef stock until smooth and add it to the blender jug.

TIPS

Dumplings, potatoes and pasta all go well with this dish.

If children are going to be eating the goulash, you can use more beef stock at room temperature instead of the red wine.
