## Beef stroganoff

Built around a few honest ingredients and one technique that matters. The technique is the fry. Do it patiently and the dish does the rest.

32 minutes

Serves

4

Difficulty

Moderate

Origin

Russia, slavic comfort cooking

Ingredients

0%

🫒 1 tbls Olive Oil

• 1 Onions

🧄 1 clove Garlic

🧈 1 tbsp Butter

• 250g Mushrooms

🥩 500g Beef Fillet

🌾 1tbsp Plain Flour

• 150g Creme Fraiche

• 1 tbsp English Mustard

🥩 100ml Beef Stock

🌿 Topping Parsley

Treat the Mushrooms as the lead, not a footnote. Source the best you can find and the dish lifts itself.

Cheap pans are fine. Heavy bottoms matter, brand names do not. A solid cast iron will outlast you.

Do not crowd the pan when searing. Cold pan plus wet meat steams the beef grey and the dish loses its backbone before it starts.
