Erdäpfelgulasch is a traditional potato stew or goulash from Austria made by simmering potatoes in a rich sauce seasoned primarily with paprika, a spice central to many Central and Eastern European cuisines.

Other common ingredients include onions, garlic, and bell peppers, all contributing to the savory and comforting nature of the dish. While it often includes meat (typically beef or sausage, depending on regional preferences or personal taste), erdäpfelgulasch can be a fantastic vegetarian option, as potatoes are the main ingredient.

The name comes from the Austrian term "erdäpfel" which means potatoes, and "gulasch" which refers to a type of stew. The finished dish is often served with a side of bread or pickles.
