Easy and Authentic Beef Stroganoff

My mother used to make this for me for ages. To me, beef stroganoff meant this dish. My father and husband both love it, and request it quite often.
You can use king oyster mushrooms instead of shiitake mushrooms. Actually, I used the former in the version in the photo, since they're inexpensive.
Don't use expensive marbled beef, or it will be way too fatty! Cheap lean beef will be better and fool them all .
If you use sour cream instead of milk and lemon juice, it will be more authentically flavored. For 2 servings. Recipe by Etude
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cut the beef into bite-sized pieces, season with salt and pepper and coat with flour.
- 2
Heat about 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a pan, and stir fry the beef from step 1. At this stage, it's best to fry the beef until it's dark brown.
- 3
Add water and soup stock cube and bring to a boil. Transfer the contents of the pan to a pot, and simmer for about 40 minutes while removing the scum and extra fat.
- 4
Rinse the pan, add more butter and sauté the chopped onion and shiitake mushrooms until softened.
- 5
Add the sauteed vegetables from Step 4 to the simmering pot from Step 3 and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper. Continue simmering until there's almost no liquid left in the pot.
- 6
Add the milk and lemon juice just before serving and mix in lightly. Warm through and it's done. Don't cook for too long after adding the milk and lemon juice.
- 7
Serve with rice or mashed potatoes.

I hate doing things which take time and effort so I made it as simple as I could.Taste it when it's done. If it's too strong, add milk, if it's weak, add salt.The can of mushrooms contained 100 ml of juice and had a net weight of 100 g. Adjust the amount of milk etc. depending on the size of the can you use. For 3 to 4 servings. Recipe by Gubigubipuha- cookpad.japan -

I experimented several times to come up with my very own flavor.Be careful not to let it burn while simmering. Mix from the bottom well. I recommend serving with a salad and a baguette or plain rice. Taste it before adding the cream as it'll become mild. Wipe up the leftover sauce from your plate with a piece of bread! Recipe by Hoshirun cookpad.japan -

Ultra Easy Beef Stroganoff Ultra Easy Beef Stroganoff
I adapted a recipe a friend taught me by changing the amounts and ingredients to be easier to make. It was a revelation to me that you could make beef stroganoff without any roux or demi-glace sauce or wine! It's so easy, and reasonably priced too - but still delicious and looks luxurious. It's a family favorite.Adding mushrooms will make it even more authentic. If you don't have Japanese Worcestershire-style sauce, add a similar sauce, such as tonkatsu sauce. Taste at the end and adjust the seasoning. Add salt and pepper, if it needs more flavor, and dilute with cream or hot water if it's too salty. Recipe by syusyusyu cookpad.japan -

I have been craving beef stroganoff for a few weeks now so i decided to go ahead and make it for dinner. You can use any type of steak for this recipe, i had some prime cuts of ribeye that i got from my butcher for a cookout a couple weeks ago for an awesome price, i recommend him to everybody(this is a shameful plug but Latin American grocery and meat market located at 516 SE 47th Terrace Cape Coral, Fl 33904)tell him i sent you, you wont get a discount but at least he know i showed love! Also as opposed to egg noodles that beef stroganoff recipes call for im using penne. Because its raining and i dont feel like going to the store thedrunkengrillmaster -
