Best Beef Stroganoff
Buy a couple of nice pieces of braising steak, a punnet of shrooms, a pot of creme fraiche, you'll also need a decent beef stock pot and some garlic. Last time I made this I served it over thick pasta fettuccine with a dollop of creme fraiche on top.
Slice your beef into thinish strips, and Putin a pan with a little vegetable oil, just throw them in and brown. Take out and add sliced mushrooms and chopped onion, brown for five minutes and then add two minced cloves of garlic, stir for a minute then add a glass of white wine, reduce for a minute or two, then Yeltsin back the beef and add beef stock, reduce heat and Lenin simmer for an hour or so. When you are happy that the beef is as cooked as you like, Andropov two tablespoons of creme fraiche, stir around for a minute or two and serve as shown below.
If you want it a bit more liquid Putin more stock, if you want it more creamy Putin more creme fraiche after all you are the Gorbachev of your stroganoff.
Nostrovia!
