Recipe for "stroganoff-1"

NAME

     STROGANOFF-1 - Sumptuous beef Stroganoff
     This easy recipe can be served either on steamed rice or  on
     noodles.

INGREDIENTS (Serves 4)

     700 g     round steak or other beef fillet
     250 g     canned sliced mushrooms
     350 ml    sour cream
     125 ml    white wine
     30 ml     chopped onion
     30 ml     Worcestershire sauce
     5 ml      nutmeg
     1 Tbsp    chopped chives
     5 ml      minced garlic (or more to taste)
               salt
               pepper
               pasta or steamed rice

PROCEDURE

          (1)  Cut meat into 1-cm thick by 5-cm long strips.
          (2)  Saute the onions in butter until brown.
          (3)  Place meat in pan with onions.   Sear  quickly  in
               frying  pan  along  with  onion.   (This seals the
               juices inside.)  Avoid overcooking the meat.
          (4)  Add mushrooms, and stir in the wine,  chives,  and
               garlic for about 5 minutes.
          (5)  Finally add sour cream, Worcestershire sauce,  and
               chives, and simmer until it almost boils.
          (6)  Serve on noodles or steamed white rice.

NOTES

     You may want to vary the thickness of the sauce. I  do  this
     by adding sour cream to thicken, or adding wine to lighten.

RATING

     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 30 to 45 minutes  cooking.   Preci-
     sion: approximate measurement OK.
