beef stroganoff

This is one of our favourite dishes. Mushrooms, paprika, mustard, wine and sour cream – these are a few of my favourite things. This dish is so quick, easy and tasty and most of the ingredients are pantry staples, I don’t know why anyone would want to make this with a packet mix.

Ingredients

500g beef cut into strips

1/4 cup of plain flour

salt and pepper

olive oil

1 small onion, sliced

300g mushrooms, sliced

a splash or two of dry white wine

2 tsp paprika

2 tsp tomato paste

1 tsp Dijon mustard

1/4 cup stock (chicken, beef or vegetable)

2 Tbsp sour cream

1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Method

Toss beef strips with flour, salt and pepper.
Heat oil to medium hot and brown the beef in small batches. Remove from pan.
Add a little more oil and cook the onion for a couple of minutes until soft. Add the mushrooms and cook for another minute or two.
Add the wine and scrape up any flour from the bottom of the pan.
Add paprika, tomato paste, mustard and stock and simmer for a couple of minutes.
Return the meat and the juices to the pan and simmer for another minute, then add in the sour cream and parsley and stir until just heated through.
Serve on rice or pasta.
