Saute the onion and garlic in the drippings until they are soft. Stir in the paprika, salt, and caraway seeds; cook for 1 minute. Stir in the meat, Coca-Cola, wine, and tomatoes. Cover tightly; simmer about 1-1/2 hours or until the meat is fork-tender.
In a bowl, blend the flour with a little water to make a smooth paste; stir into goulash. Serve with hot noodles. Makes 8 servings (about 6 cups).
