Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef, salt, and pepper to taste. Cook until ground beef is cooked and golden brown. Drain the fat if needed and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the onion and cook until translucent. Add the grated carrot and cook until the carrot becomes soft.

Add tomato sauce or paste and veggie stock or mix in a bouillon cube with water and stir. Let the carrots and onions simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Follow with cabbage, add salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir well to combine all the ingredients. Let simmer under a closed lid (stirring occasionally) until cabbage becomes soft.

Return the cooked beef, stir, garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives and serve while hot.
