Answers:
Beef Stroganoff, in its modern American form, is dish of strips of beef filet with a mushroom, onion, and sour cream sauce. It is served over rice or noodles. There are many variations.
Recipes of braised meats finished with sour cream are fairly typical of medieval Russian cookery.[citation needed]
Elena Molokhovets' classic cookbook (1861) gives the first known recipe for Govjadina po-strogonovski, s gorchitseju 'Beef Stroganov with mustard' which involves lightly floured beef cubes (not strips) sautéed, sauced with prepared mustard and bouillon, and finished with a small amount of sour cream: no onions, no mushrooms. A 1912 recipe adds onions and tomato paste and serves it with crisp potato straws, which are considered the traditional garnish in Russia.[1] The version given in the 1938 Larousse Gastronomique includes beef strips, and onions, with either mustard or tomato paste optional.
After the fall of Imperial Russia, the recipe was popularly served in the hotels and restaurants of China before the start of the Second World War. Russian and Chinese immigrants, as well as U.S. servicemen stationed in pre-socialist China, brought several variants of the dish to the United States, which may account for its popularity during the 1950s. It is commonly served with noodles or rice.
Beef stroganoff can also be made from adding water to prepackaged dry mixes (here a Norwegian stroganoff product)It is also very popular in Brazil (where it is better known as "strogonoff" or "estrogonofe"), but the recipe is slightly different there, with tomato sauce added to the cream, and strips of chicken breast commonly replacing the beef. Also, the dish is commonly served with rice and potato chips.
The dish is also popular in Sweden and Norway. In Sweden, it is known as sausage stroganoff, which uses the domestic product falukorv as a substitute for the beef. Beef stroganoff is however also a common dish.
This is apparent also in many international variations of the dish, where tomato sauce, ketchup, mustard, thickening and other ingredients has been added depending on where it is served.
It is very popular as a basic food service dish as it is very easy to produce in large quantities.

Don't be fooled by the name. It looks like something your dog might have hacked up after eating some sort of woodland creature.

it is....
unhealthy and good
noodles, cream-sauce, and beef
It is strips of sirloin steak prepared with mushrooms, sour cream and white wine. Normally it is served on noodles, but rice works well.
Beef Stroganoff is sirloin tip or stew beef, creamy sauce, and egg noodles. When I make it, to help save time, I use the McCormick brand "Beef Stroganoff" packaged seasoning, and it's quite good. When you use the packaged spice seasoning mix, all you need is a pound of the sirloin tips or stew beef, a cup of water, the seasoning package, a cup of sour cream, and some cooked egg noodles. If you want to make the sauce extra creamy and rich, brown/cook the beef with some butter and then add the water and seasoning mix. It's really good.
ITS A STEW MADE WITH FILLET STEAK AND MUSHROOMS AND CREAM,IT IS VERY GOOD.
I would describe it as a beef & mushroom stew in a sour cream gravy. My suggestion ,don't be put off by descriptions,try for yourself,makes a nice variant from usual beef dishes.
This is how I cook it:
Saute some lean diced beef and when almost done add some fine diced onion,a little minced garlic and minced shallots,some sliced fresh mushrooms and 2 tablespoons of finer diced green onions. When that is nice and brown add about a half cup of sherry wine,let it reduce a little and add about a cup of brown beef sauce (gravy) with about a half cup of sour cream. Cook it until the sauce thickens enough to hold its shape a little. You can add salt and black or white pepper to taste. Serve over rice or some sauted fettuccine noodles
It's beef in a sour cream sauce served over noodles and it is wonderful. This recipe is extremely easy to make. I use tenderloin but any good cut of beef can be substituted.
