Best uses for leftover roast beef? |
|
It was a damn fine cut of meat, too. We're thinking hash and stew.
Any other ideas among this very creative group of folks? (Yes, I'm sucking up, but dangit, I'm not the cook in the family but I got left with about 6lb of beef and I'm clueless about what I'm supposed to do with it.)
TIA

cook up some wide egg noodles
take an onion and a bunch of mushrooms and saute in butter til soft
you can use sherry or red wine or tomato juice for the liquid add to onions and mushrooms and let cook down some
add pepper, basil and your meat and heat til hot all the way thru
once the liquid is cooked down and the noodles are done, add 8 oz of sour cream and fold into the meat mixture over LOW LOW heat (do NOT let it boil) serve immediately over noodles
Yummm!! I have also used dried onion soup mix with some water or some beef stock (my secret ingredient is the Basil)

4. We have this bakery here in Portland that |
|
makes European-style bread -- you know, the kind you need teeth to eat, not this soft Wonder bread stuff. They have an olive palmetto loaf that's just to die for.
That'd be purrfect.

12. The stroganoff was marvelous. |
|
My mother, of course, did it her way -- no basil, milk instead of tomato juice, cream of mushroom soup in addition to the sour cream -- but still it was very, very good.
:D

15. And trying to talk her into doing it different... |
|
I tried. It was like trying to get a cat to do cartwheels. "I don't like it with tomato juice."
And I was wondering where I got my stubborn streak.

5. Why change a good thing? |
|
If we ever have left over Roast Beef, I slice it thin and serve in with hot gravy over bread for open faced sandwiches. Knorr brand makes decent gravy from a packet.

8. freeze a couple of 1 pound portions for a couple or three weeks |
|
down the road.
cube up about a pound and make soup
slice thin, then into strips and make a Thai Beef Salad
or just add the thin sliced beef to your favorite tossed salad
and here is a nice unusual one:
shred the meat, mix w/mayo, celery, etc maybe a touch of horseradish and use same as you would tuna or chicken salad.
chop up the meat and make enchiladas with it

We're gonna make beef stroganoff, hash (with potato mixed in and eggs baked on top), and then a nice beef stew.
Yummy.
Thanks everybody.

11. here's a mexican way to do it |
|
Shred the piece of roast beef, and put about a tablespoon of olive oil in a hot pan. Add the shredded pieces of roast beef to the pan, and basically "fry" until the beef is crispy. Put on top of tostadas, which are tiny little flat fried tortillas, and put some chopped onions and cilantro on top with a little drizzle of salsa verde. An excellent side dish to go with this would be mexican rice and beans.
