How to make Beef Stroganoff

You'll need

A medium-sized yellow onion
some cooking oil
about a pound of stew beef (more if you want it extra beefy)
flour
beef broth
worchestershire sauce
tomato paste (the kind in those little tins)
a package or two depending on your tastes) of mushrooms (regular button mushrooms, although I suppose you could ad fancy ones)
salt, pepper, and paprika (try and find the good stuff, Hungarian paprika; if there's a Whole Foods near you, they should have it)
half a pint of heavy cream
8oz of sour cream
1 package of egg noodles

Chop up the onion and cook it in the oil until translucent in a large, deep saucepan. Dredge each piece of beef in the flour and add it to the pan and brown it. Add enough beef broth to cover it. Add a teaspoon of tomato paste and a few dashes of worchestershire sauce. Let it simmer for maybe 30-45 minutes. Slice and add the mushrooms. Add sour cream, heavy cream, more worchestershire sauce, salt and pepper and paprika. Keep simmering until it is thick, adjusting salt, pepper, paprika, and worchestershire sauce to taste. While it is thickening, cook the noodles. When it's the right thickness, serve it over the noodles. It goes very well with peas or broccoli.

	I've always had my stroganoff over rice of matchstick potatos, not noodles... (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Omit the mushrooms and you have beef noodles romanov. Also tasty, but I prefer the mushroom version myself. (Reply to this)(Parent)
