Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and fry until soft. Add beef and brown for 10 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.

Reduce heat and add garlic, caraway seeds, paprika, tomato, salt, and stock. Stir well, then simmer over gentle heat 1-1 1/2 hours, until meat is tender. Add peppers and potatoes and cook 20-25 minutes more, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, mix eggs, flour, and pinch of salt; then roll the dough into dumplings. Drop dumplings into simmering stew and let cook 2-3 minutes, until they float to the surface. Remove dumplings, adjust seasoning of broth and serve together in bowls.
