Beef in the pan
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I add smoked paprika to the meat, which gives it a very appetizing color and smoky flavor. You can enhance this aroma by adding prunes, if desired. You can adjust the amount of water to your taste—make the sauce more liquid if you prefer. I like it thick, so I didn't add any extra water during cooking and simmered it covered tightly. Serve hot.
