That's what I figured.
My mom made "goulash" when I was a kid, but it's not that. It was ground beef, diced potato and onion, with a little water or stock. Boiled till the potatoes are done, and starch from the potato thickens the liquid into kind of a sauce. Sometimes she'd add corn.
I was in my 20s before I ever had the noodle/tomato sauce goulash, and it was not what I was expecting when someone said they were making it. Argued with them that whatever they made is good, but it's not goulash.
