STROGANOFF ( FOR ELAINE )

I've made this dish so many times and am happy to share my recipe . This is a dish that combines thinly sliced and lightly browned beef, onions lightly stewed with sour cream and onions . Stroganoff is a Russian dish and has no mushrooms added . BUT of course the french version "Beef Bourguignon'is stroganoff with mushrooms added . Here is the Russian mushroom free version . You will need 1 kg of fillet steak sliced into thin strips ( best get your butcher to do this ). Peel and slice 2 onions . Melt 3 tbs of butter / marg in a pan over a medium heat . Add the sliced beef and the onions along with 2 tbs of minced garlic . season with cracked black pepper and a little sriracha ( optional ) . Your kitchen will become aromatic and the onions will soften . When the beef has browned , reduce the heat and add 600 ml of sour cream with 2 tbs of dried dill , do not boil just stir and heat through . Serve over cooked noodles . Elaine , if you want to go the 'French ' version ...... Mix 1 can of Cream of mushroom soup with the 600ml of sour cream and dried dill . Gently heat through the meat mixture and serve over the cooked noodles . Enjoy .
