PP goulash is an ideal option for proper nutrition. With this dish you will significantly diversify your diet, make it tasty and healthy.
What is goulash? In general, this is a thick Hungarian soup made from meat, with the addition of onions and potatoes. Since goulash is prepared with pork lard, it cannot be called a dietary recipe. This is a very satisfying and nutritious dish that clearly does not fit into a healthy diet. The goulash we will be preparing is a stew of meat and vegetables. This is a lighter version of classic goulash, without adding potatoes and pork lard. True, we will still fry the meat, but in a small amount of vegetable oil.
Since our dish should be dietary, it must be prepared using the right ingredients. The main ingredient is meat, which means we need lean meats. So, beef, veal, chicken, chicken fillet, turkey are ideal for this dish. You can also add low-fat sour cream or natural yogurt to goulash.
You can serve PP goulash with buckwheat, brown rice, quinoa and bulgur!

Sauces for diet 5 types and characteristics
If you read the detailed description of the “fifth table” diet, you can find many different sauces. We will present some of them - the most basic ones - and briefly describe what they are.
- Rice sauce is quite specific, but recommended on the “5th table”. For it, white rice is taken, washed and boiled to a porridge state, and then rubbed through a sieve. Butter is added to the finished mass and salted, and used as a dressing for dishes. However, do not forget that white polished rice is a very high-calorie and carbohydrate product, and also mucus-forming. So, perhaps, you should not get too carried away with this gravy, and it is unlikely that you will be delighted with its taste.
- Dressing made from boiled eggs, herbs and broth. The broth can only be light - from lean meat, ideally chicken. Boiled eggs, finely chopped, and chopped fresh herbs, as well as salt, are added to it. It sounds delicious, but it's more like a light soup than a sauce. Although, for a salad or vegetables – it’s absolutely fine, why not! You can’t have a lot of eggs on the “5th table”; they are allowed only in limited quantities, so you shouldn’t cook this dish often.
- Milk-tomato gravy is very tasty and tender. It is based on milk, flour, butter and a little natural tomato, as well as salt and herbs. Even without a diet, this sauce will become a favorite among all gourmets, and it goes well with any dish - poultry, fish, vegetables, pasta and cereals. We will look at it in more detail later and share its original recipe.
- Sour cream and apple dressing with herbs is very tasty, ideal for salads, but it also goes harmoniously with other dishes. It is prepared on the basis of sour cream diet sauce, the recipe for which we will describe in detail below. Only an apple is added there, peeled and grated on a fine grater. And some fresh herbs. Very fresh, tasty and healthy!
- Protein sauce with broth - its recipe is quite specific, but it is given in the classic description of the “5 table” diet. According to the recipe, you need to grind the boiled egg whites, mix with chopped fresh herbs, add a little hot meat broth and butter. Mix all this and salt it, and use it as a topping. It might be delicious, try it!
PP chicken or turkey goulash
If you want to make low-calorie goulash, it is best to use chicken or turkey meat. Chicken fillet is perfect! So, you need to prepare the following ingredients:
- 500 grams of chicken fillet. Wash and cut into thin pieces.
- 1 large carrot. Clean and grate.
- 1 medium onion. Clean and cut into half rings.
- 50 grams of tomato paste.
- 50 grams of low-fat sour cream.
- 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
- 1 tablespoon rice flour.
- Salt and spices to your taste.
- Glass of water
Fry the chicken fillet in a frying pan with one spoon of vegetable oil. As soon as the meat becomes a little golden, add onions and carrots to it. Fry for another 3-5 minutes. Then add a spoonful of flour and mix thoroughly. Pour a glass of water over the meat, add tomato paste and sour cream. Mix everything thoroughly, add salt and pepper. Simmer for about 10 minutes.

Diet sauces
In general, dietary sauces come in a wide variety, and new recipes are constantly appearing. They can be made from vegetables, tomatoes, milk or sour cream, from a wide variety of ingredients. The main thing is that the principle of nutrition on the “fifth” diet is strictly observed.
On this diet, onions and garlic, any hot seasonings and spices that irritate the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines, as well as spinach, radish, sorrel and any canned foods are prohibited. But tomatoes, salt and sugar in moderate proportions, low-fat dairy products and butter are allowed. This means you can prepare a variety of light gravies to suit every taste!
For example, a dietary sauce made from sour cream with the addition of dried herbs, a sauce made from milk with butter and flour, a sauce made from vegetable broth with eggs. There are many options, and even you, being on this diet, can create your own gravy recipes, guided by the restrictions and recommendations of this diet. The main thing in dietary sauces is no excess fat, do not fry anything, only simmer, and avoid harmful and prohibited foods. And, of course, moderation is the most important thing in any diet!
