Beef Stroganoff

I tenderize the beef the way Chinese restaurants do to make the beef very tender

Ingredients

1. 1 1/2 lbs lean beef
2. 1 cup sliced mushrooms
3. 1 (14 1/2 oz) can beef broth
4. 1 can cream of mushroom soup
5. 1 medium onion diced
6. 1-2 cloves garlic chopped fine
7. 2 tsp baking soda
8. Olive oil
9. 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
10. Salt and pepper
11. Pinch nutmeg
12. 1/4 cup sour cream
13. Flour
14. Egg noodles

Steps

1. Slice beef into 1/2 by 2in strips, then place in bowl and drizzle with olive oil and baking soda, mix to coat beef, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour

   

2. Place beef in a colander and rinse under cold water, pat with paper towels to dry

3. In a large sauté pan heat a little oil and brown meat on all sides, remove from pan set aside

4. In the same pan melt 2 tablespoons of butter add onion and mushrooms, sauté until most of the moisture has evaporated, then add garlic and sauté a minute more

   

5. Sprinkle with about 2 tablespoons of flour, cook stirring for a minute or two making a roux, add beef broth stirring to release any brown bits from bottom of pan, until slightly thickened then add mushroom soup, Worcestershire sauce, and nutmeg. Lower heat to medium low and simmer 30 minutes or more if you want the beef very tender

   

6. Cook egg noodles according to package directions, drain

7. When noodles are done, stir sour cream into beef mixture, adjust seasoning, serve over noodles
