Beef Stroganoff

Easy Beef Stroganoff


Beef Stroganoff is a great classic dish that is very easy and quick to prepare. You can even substitute left-over roast beef, cut into strips and added after the onions and mushrooms are cooked. The flavor is greatly enhanced if you make your own fettuccine noodles.

Beef Stroganoff Recipe

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1½ pounds (600 gm) lean sirloin beef steak
  • 6 - 8 white button mushrooms, sliced
  • 3 medium onions chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups (500 ml) beef stock
  • 5½ ounce (156 ml) can of tomato paste
  • 1½ cups (375 ml) sour cream
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) flour
  • 3 tbsp (45 ml) olive oil
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • Hot cooked fettuccine noodles
  • METHOD:

    Trim excess fat from the beef and cut into 1/2" x 2" ( 1 cm x 5 cm) strips across the grain of the meat.

    Season with salt and pepper.

    Heat a large frying pan until very hot, add the oil and cook the beef strips quickly - cooking in about three batches so that it fries and doesn't start to stew.

    Add the onion and continue to cook a few minutes more, then add the garlic and mushrooms.

    Add the tomato paste and the beef stock, mix well, bring to a boil and continue to simmer.

    Combine the flour and the sour cream in a small bowl then carefully add this to the pan, stirring well.

    Do not allow to boil but maintain the temperature until pasta and side dishes are ready.
