Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 onions, the more the better, cut in 1/2 and sliced
margarine
1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
2 (4 ounce) cans mushrooms, drained
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
2 cups water
3 teaspoons beef bouillon
4 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water
1 lb linguine or 1 lb spaghetti
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream, light is fine
1 teaspoon Kitchen Bouquet, to color gravy

Steps:

  • Put water on to boil for pasta. Add 2 T. salt to water. When water comes to a boil, add pasta of your choice, and cook according to the pkg. directions, until al dente. When done, drain and set aside.
  • In the meantime:.
  • Cook onions in pan using enough margarine so they don't stick to the pan.
  • When onions are soft, add ground beef. Fry until cooked through. Drain off any excess grease.
  • Turn to med-high heat, and add mushrooms (drained) and soup, and mix well.
  • Stir in 2 cups of water, add beef bouillon, and mix into the water. Stir all, and let cook for a few minutes. If it starts bubbling too hard, turn heat down to med.
  • In a measuring cup, mix 4 T. of constarch with about 1/4 cup of COLD water. When you add this to the mixure, you want the mixture to become thick. (Keep in mind you will be adding sour cream which will thin the sauce, so thicken accordingly). Add more constarch and water mixture, if needed.
  • Turn heat down to low, and add sour cream. Do NOT BOIL or cook on high, or it will curdle.
  • Season with pepper and salt, as desired.
  • Add Kitchen Bouquet, and mix in to get a nice dark color for the sauce.
  • Plate pasta, and pour stroganoff over the top.
  • Serve.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect beef stroganoff, start by selecting high-quality ingredients. Use a good cut of beef, such as flank steak or sirloin tip. Look for mushrooms that are firm and fresh, and use good-quality sour cream and beef broth.
  • Be sure to slice the beef against the grain. This will make it more tender and easier to chew.
  • To get the best flavor out of the mushrooms, sauté them in butter until they are browned and slightly crispy.
  • Don't boil the sour cream. Add it to the stroganoff at the end of the cooking process and stir until it is just heated through. Boiling the sour cream will cause it to curdle.
  • Serve beef stroganoff over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Beef stroganoff is a classic dish that is both delicious and easy to make. By following these tips, you can make the perfect beef stroganoff that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful meal, give beef stroganoff a try.
