The kitchen smells amazing, but I'm getting tired. Lol.
Beef Stroganoff
1 large round steak cut up into strips
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 large onion, sliced into strips
3-4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 stick of butter
2 cans of beef bullion
1 cup sour cream
Melt butter in large skillet. Coat steak strips in flour, salt & pepper mixture. Brown steak in skillet (stir well after browning to loosen up the drippings). Add mushrooms, garlic & onion and cook about 5 minutes until they start to get tender, stirring well. Stir in cans of beef broth. Cover and simmer on low for about an hour, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Just before serving, stir in sour cream making sure its well heated. Serve over buttered noodles.
A good side with this is french cut green beans with slivered almonds. Get some good crusty french bread and a nice cabernet.

(146,218 posts)I usually make with a good cut of meat, stir fry the beef and don't let it cook too long.
But sometimes I make with leftover beef, and in that case I let it cook a lot longer.
Hope it was great.
(Dreaming about slurping up that wonderful sauce with the noodles)

1 pound lean ground beef (extra half pound more if you are feeding 6)
1 medium diced yellow onion
6 oz sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup minced celery leaves
1 T dill weed
pinch grated nutmeg
2 T worcestershire sauce
S&P
1/2 cup leftover coffee
1-2 cups sour cream (more or less depending on how saucy you want)
1. Brown ground beef with 1 tsp butter in large saute pan. Sprinkle worcestershire sauce as it begins to brown. Season with S&P.
2. In separate smaller pan, brown the mushrooms with another tsp butter. This extra step will enhance flavor.
3. Dump diced onion, celery tops, mushrooms, and everything else except sour cream into the large saute pan with beef. Add the coffee. Stir and cover and simmer on low for 20 minutes or more.
4. Then a few minutes from serving, stir in the sour cream, adjust seasonings, add a little grated fresh nutmeg if you have it. Simmer on low for just a few more minutes. If your sauce is too thick, add some milk or buttermilk.
Good with egg noodles.

(21,046 posts)I brown cubes of steak, no breading, and use canned beef gravy for the sauce, throw in sautéed onions, and then of course a dab of sour cream.
Sounds yummy!!
