Can anyone recommend a good beef stroganoff recipe please?!
Answers: I have friends coming for dinner tomorrow night and would like to cook beef stroganoff. I can find plenty of recipes online but as I'll be spending a lot of money on a good cut of beef, I would prefer to use a recipe that's been tried and comes with a recommendation. Many thanks!
Quick beef stroganoff
Serves 4
Preparation time less than 30 mins
Cooking time 10 to 30 mins
Ingredients
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 large onion, sliced
500g/1lb 2oz rump steak
2 tbsp plain flour
2 tbsp paprika, plus extra for sprinkling
250g/9oz chestnut mushrooms
200ml/7fl oz beef stock
2 tbsp white wine vinegar
284ml/10fl oz carton soured cream
Method
1. Heat the butter and oil in a large frying pan.
2. Cook the sliced onion for 5 minutes until softened. Meanwhile cut the beef into thin strips. Season the flour with salt, pepper and paprika, then toss in the beef to coat lightly, shaking off any excess.
3. Add the beef to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes until starting to brown.
4. Halve the mushrooms, add to the pan and stir fry for a couple of minutes. Pour in the stock and vinegar, bring to the boil then lower the heat and simmer gently for 5 minutes.
5. Stir the soured cream into the pan and cook gently for 1 minute, without boiling (if the mixture boils it will curdle), then season to taste. Spoon the stroganoff on to a bed of rice or noodles and sprinkle with a little extra paprika.
6 Tbsp butter
1 pound of top sirloin or tenderloin, cut thin into 1-inch wide by 2 1/2-inch long strips
1/3 cup chopped shallots (can substitute onions)
1/2 pound cremini mushrooms, sliced
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon of dry tarragon or 2 teaspoons of chopped fresh tarragon
1 cup of sour cream at room temperature
1 Melt 3 Tbsp of butter in a large skillet on medium heat. Increase the heat to high/med-high and add the strips of beef. You want to cook the beef quickly, browning on each side, so the temp needs to be high enough to brown the beef, but not so high as to burn the butter. You may need to work in batches. While cooking the beef, sprinkle with some salt and pepper. When both sides are browned, remove the beef to a bowl and set aside.
2 In the same pan, reduce the heat to medium and add the shallots. Cook the shallots for a minute or two, allowing them to soak up any meat drippings. Remove the shallots to the same bowl as the meat and set aside.
3 In the same pan, melt another 3 Tbsp of butter. Increase heat to medium high and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally for about 4 minutes. While cooking, sprinkle the nutmeg and the tarragon on the mushrooms.
4 Reduce the heat to low and add the sour cream to the mushrooms. You may want to add a tablespoon or two of water to thin the sauce (or not). Mix in the sour cream thoroughly. Do not let it come to a simmer or boil or the sour cream will curdle. Stir in the beef and shallots. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Serve immediately over egg noodles, fettucine, potatoes, or rice. (Potatoes, rice, and wheat-free pasta are wheat-free options.)
Hamburger Helper makes an awesome stroganoff in the box... and no one has to know hehehe! I use it all the time... of course I'm a known box chef though haha, but it's really good, I never get complanits.
I use Betty Crocker's Beef Stroganoff, and i love it.
Sometimes I use beef for stewing, which is more chewier so use smaller pieces and canned mushrooms are OK, fresh is better though.

My favorite chef Tler Florence's recipe
Beef Stroganoff over Buttered Noodles
Recipe courtesy Tyler Florence
3 cups beef stock
1 carrot, chopped
6 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
2 pounds chuck roast, cut into 2-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 tablespoons cognac
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pound mushrooms, sliced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons sour cream, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves, plus more for garnish
1 (1-pound) package wide egg noodles
Heat the beef stock with the carrot, 3 thyme sprigs, and bay leaf. Pat the beef dry and season it with salt and pepper. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large heavy bottomed skillet over high heat. Fry the meat in batches so that it is browned on all sides. Lower the heat to medium and return all the meat to the pot. Add the onions and cook until they are soft, about 5 minutes. Pour in the cognac and cook until the alcohol has burned off, about 5 minutes. Add the beef stock, discarding the carrot, thyme sprigs, and bay leaf. Cook, partially covered, over a very low flame for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons butter in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add the mushrooms, garlic, and remaining 3 thyme sprigs and cook until the mushrooms are browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
When the meat is done, remove it from the heat and fold in the mushrooms, sour cream, mustard, and parsley. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, cook the noodles in a large pot of boiling, salted water until tender. Drain the noodles well, toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, and season with salt and pepper. Serve the stroganoff over the noodles; garnish with more sour cream and chopped parsley.
I make this all the time and have never had any complaints. I buy a good quality beef and saute it in olive oil with chopped onion. I leave the meat nice and tender. Then I add freshly sliced good quality mushrooms, a couple different varities. I season with a bit of fresh ground s & p. Then I add a tub of sour cream and once it's all nice and hot pour over egg noodles. It's simple and not fancy, but it tastes very good.
