It looks good, but I thought goulash was thicker than that. And it has
too much parsnips for my taste. I might try it tho'.

That recipe made me hungry. Now to the great debate. Is Goulash a soup, or a stew? My folks are ethnic Germans from Hungary. We had Goulash as a main course. But they also made Goulash soup. It was a soup; different from Goulash. Not as much paprika and lots of veggies in there. And dumplings added. Our regular Goulash did not have dumplings added, but were served up beside the Goulash.
When I was in Germany, I loved the Ungarishe Goulash Suppe. This translates as Hungarian Goulash Soup. In Hungary, I only ordered Goulash once. I received it on a flat plate with dumplings on the side. Now, I know there are soups that are a complete meal. French onion soup comes to mind.
But, I usually refer to a starter as a soup. Whatever. I think there is Goulash soup, and plain Goulash. The Goulash isn't very thick, so I think that maybe that's why it's thought of as a soup, and not a stew. But in my mind, it's always a main course dish.

When I had Goulash in a Czech restaurant a couple months ago it was
served on a plate with spaetzle. We had the dinner special that included
soup, chicken noodle or Borscht. Obviously we did not have soup as a
first course and as a second course.

Real goulash, like real chili, lacks vegetables.

In both cases, "real" is just a snotty troll word.

Though gulasch originated in Hungary, it's also a traditional Viennese
dish. The Restaurant Gulaschmuseum (http://www.gulasch.at/), near the
Stephansdom in the center of Vienna, offers many types of gulasch, and
many of them contain vegetables.

Also, in my experience in both countries, gulaschsuppe *always* contains
potatoes. It's the very first food I go for when I arrive in Austria!

I only ever had the Hungarian kind once. I don't recall any veggies in
there beyond the tomato product (sauce?) but there may have been onions. It
was very thick and served as a main dish over noodles. But my friend said
it was also commonly served over potatoes.

Oh how I *love* spaetzle! Wish I knew of a way to make it with no eggs.
Probably wouldn't taste right though if I did.

That's a stew, not a Gulasch.

Oh come on, we've already established that there is Gulash and also
Gulaschsuppe but not consistency in naming.
