A Classic Beef Stroganoff Recipe




Beef Stroganoff Recipe with Beef Fillet, Butter, Onions, Mushroons & Sour Cream.



INGREDIENTS:



1 lb (450g) Fillet of Beef
1 1/2 Medium Onions
4 oz (100g) Closed Cap Mushrooms
1 oz (25g) Butter
1/8 Pint (75ml) Soured Cream
Salt & Pepper



METHOD:



Slice the Beef into 2in (5cm) strips - the thickness of your finger. Slice the Onions thinly. Cut the stems off the Mushrooms and also slice thinly.

Over a low heat melt half the Butter (with a tad of Olive Oil) in a Frying Pan and add the Onions. Move around regularly until they are soft and see through. It is important that they do not burn. Add the sliced Mushrooms and toss around for a minute or so until they are soft and coated with the juices.

Spoon out the Onions and Mushrooms into a dish.

Add the remaining Butter to the Frying Pan and allow it to get very hot - so that it froths. Drop in the Beef strips and fry briskly on all sides. The Beef really needs only to be browned and not over-cooked in the middle. A couple of minutes at the most.

Tip the Onions and Mushrooms back into the Frying Pan. Season well with Salt & Pepper. Add the Soured Cream and cook at the same heat for another minute so that the Cream reduces to a syrupy consistency.

Serve at once.

Serves 2 as a Main Meal.

Answer 2

The crockpot is the easiest way to make it. And yes, a cut of beef is better than ground beef anyday. Here's the recipe I use:

INGREDIENTS:
1 London Broil steak, about 1 1/2 to 2 pounds, thinly sliced
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup chopped onions, optional
8 ounces sliced mushrooms, optional
1 tablespoon Kitchen Bouquet or other browning sauce
1/2 cup sour cream

PREPARATION:
Combine steak, soup, onions, mushrooms and browning sauce in crockpot. Cover and cook on low for 7 to 9 hours. Add sour cream 20 minutes before serving time. Serve over noodles or rice.


One last suggestion: Partially freeze the London Broil before you slice it. It makes it easier to slice it thin!

Answer 3

Put the steak in a crock pot and pour 1/2 jar of salsa over it (for the salt). Do this the day before you're making stroganoff.

Any other way and the steak will be tough.

I have used cheap good stew meat cut up and also hamburger meat, which we then call it SOS. Make it quick with the stew meat, onions, and mushrooms cooked in a pan until tender and then add your mushroom soup and sour cream to thicken and make the sauce. Put over rice or noodles. Yum!
