I've seen many recipes for beef stroganoff here that look good, but I still like this one the best. It was given to my by my mother-in-law. She's a fantastic cook and I was so happy when my husband said mine was just as good as hers! It's important to make the dish in a large skillet (instead of dutch oven or sauce pan) where there is a lot of room on the bottom for all the ingredients to share the heat. Ingredients:
1 lb stew beef chunk |
1 onion, diced |
1 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced |
16 ounces sour cream |
1 lb wide egg noodles, cooked |
Directions:
1. Heat 1 T. oil & brown stew beef cubes (on all sides) in large skillet. If you buy prepared beef cubes instead of making your own from a larger piece of meat, you may need to cut the cubes into bite-sized pieces.
2. Add onions and sauté until transparent.
3. Add mushrooms to skillet.
4. Fill skillet with water to just about covering beef cubes & veggies.
5. Heat to boiling then turn down the heat and simmer on low/medium for 45 minutes to 1 hour until beef is fall-apart tender.
6. Add more water if necessary, but the goal is to have tender beef and about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of broth in the skillet. Too much water and you will need a thickener (like flour or corn starch slurry).
7. Add sour cream to beef mixture and stir liberally.
8. Plate with cooked egg noodles and garnish with fresh parsley & ground pepper.
9. Pare with a nice Burgundy or Pinot Noir.
10. Enjoy!
