BEEF STROGANOFF COOKING TIPS
Beef
Stroganoff is always a family favourite. It's quick, easy and flexible so you
could use chicken or pork if you preferred. The sauce is a lovely rich, creamy
mouthful of deliciousness and this meal goes wonderfully with rice or pasta.
INGREDIENTS
§ 2 lbs / 1 Kg Sirloin or Fillet
Steak.
§ 1 Tablespoon fresh or dried parsley
for garnish
§ *** you can also use pork or chicken
if you prefer.
§ 1 - 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
§ Salt & Pepper to season
§ 1 Tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
§ 3 Tablespoons Cornstarch
§ 1 Handful of mushrooms, sliced.
§ 3 Cloves Garlic crushed / minced
§ 1 Medium Onion sliced, NOT chopped
FOR THE SAUCE:
§ 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
§ 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
§ 1/2 glass of your favourite white
wine.
§ 1/2 cup / 120 ml heavy cream, or
milk if you are counting calories!
§ 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
§ 1 1/2 cups / 350 ml beef broth
§ 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Slice
the beef into thin strips, across the grain.
2. In
a bowl, add the beef, season a little with salt & pepper & the balsamic
vinegar, mix it all well, then add the cornstarch and dredge the beef slices.
Then add 2 Tablespoons of cold water and mix it all together with your fingers.
It's easier!
3. In
a drop of olive oil, lightly fry onion (cut it in slices not chopped) on a low
heat until translucent, then add the garlic and sliced mushrooms. Cook until
softened, then turn the heat up high and add the beef. Stir it all well so it
browns evenly. This should take only a minute or so. Cook until the beef is
sealed, but not cooked completely.
4. Empty
contents of pan with a slotted spoon, keep the juices in there and then add
butter.
5. When
the butter has melted, add flour and cook, stirring constantly, until flour
turns light brown, for about 2 minutes and it's all combined.
6.
Slowly
stir in broth and add the white wine. Add brown sugar and bring to a gentle
boil.
