I know professionals will say lard adds flavor, but I never buy it. Will this work with vegetable oil, and also, any special type of paprika?

I increased the paprika in this, but otherwise made as posted. I cooked it down and then made the gravy. This is a little different from any beef goulash I've ever made....more like beef and gravy! But it was delicious over my mashed potatoes. Thanks for sharing!
