Bohemian Mushroom Goulash with Herb Dumpling and Bacon
CzecHouse Grill & Rotisserie in Hilton Prague
Chef: Miroslav Hanzal
“As I come from South Bohemia, where the forests are rich with mushrooms, I am used to preparing various mushroom dishes. This Bohemian Mushroom Goulash is a delicious variation to the autumn menu and a delight to all the mushroom gourmets. A tip from me is to make use of various types of forest mushrooms, which will then greatly blend and enhance the flavors of the bacon and eventually the entire dish.”
