I’m into the classics this week - no, not music but recipes. I hope you enjoy stroganoff as much as we do!
CLASSIC BEEF STROGANOFF
Ingredients
1/2 cup flour
Salt and pepper
2 pounds boneless sirloin of beef, trimmed and cut into 2” strips
1 stick butter, 1/2 cup
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 pound or so mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 can beef broth, low sodium plus enough water to equal 2 cups
1 cup sour cream
3 tablespoons tomato paste
Worcestershire to taste - a couple shakes
Buttered noodles
Instructions
Combine the flour, salt and pepper. Dredge meat in the mixture.
Brown in one-quarter cup of butter. Remove meat from pan and set aside.
Add onion to pan and sauté until transparent. Add mushrooms and remaining butter and sauté a few minutes.
Add broth and bring to a boil.
Add meat to sauce and cook until meat is tender but not overcooked, stirring often.
