Sear the meat in several portions. Add onions, braise well with tomato paste and sun-dried tomatoes. Pour in the beer slowly (not all at once), add spices and herbs and stew for 1.5-2 hours.
How much beer you use depends heavily on the quality of the casserole used. Sometimes a lot of the liquid evaporates during braising and it may be necessary to add a 4th can of malt beer. If you cook the goulash pot in the oven at 200 ° C, the 3 cans are completely sufficient.
The sauce tastes very concentrated and does not need to be bound, as it is deliciously cooked down. Originally Belgian, they even serve a real Stoofvlees with frietjes, but I prefer dumplings, gnocchi or boiled potatoes with it. In Belgium people like to use an abbey beer like Leffe or Grimbergen, but I like it better with malt beer.
