Beef Stroganov
- 2 pounds fillet
- 1 medium onion diced fine
- 4 tbs. butter
- 1 1/2 tbs. flour
- 2 cups hot beef stock
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
- Cut the fillet into strips about 2 inches long by 1 inch wide and about 1/2 inch thick.
- Place the sliced fillet on on a plate, and season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Allow to rest in a cool place for at least 2 hours.
- Make a roux by blending 2 tbs. butter with the flour and then adding the beef stock.
- When well blended, add the sour cream, stir until creamy, and then stir in the mustard.
- I a large pan, saute the diced onion in the remaining butter until limp. Add the beef strips over medium heat until brown.
- Pour the sauce into the pan, mix well, and cook under low heat, covered, for several minutes until done, making sure that the beef is not overdone. (Note: This is fillet of beef, not stew meat, so that preparing it on the rare side is preferable.)
