Here I’ll show you the easiest and most delicious way to make a classic Beef Stroganoff!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n I’ve tested the living daylights out of this recipe to ensure the end result is a gorgeous, creamy stroganoff that’s packed with flavour. Better still, it’s incredibly quick and easy to make! Follow me…<\/p>\n There are a few variations of this dish, but the bulk of the ingredients are fairly universal. It’s more about the technique and the quantities of each ingredient. Let’s take a look at why we’re using each ingredient:<\/em><\/p>\n Prepping the beef is really simple. There are just a few tips to consider to bring out the best in the beef.<\/p>\n Process shots: slice beef (photo 1), pat dry then season (photo 2), fry in batches (photos 3&4).<\/em><\/p>\n The sauce starts where the beef ends – all that fond in the pan<\/strong> that’s left from frying the beef? That’s bonus flavour<\/strong> just waiting to be used! When you fry the onions, the moisture they release will help lift up all the flavour.<\/p>\n Just like the beef, it’s important to get a nice brown crust on the mushrooms too<\/strong>, just to maximise their flavour. Try and make sure each slice gets direct contact with the pan to encourage some caramelisation.<\/p>\n Process shots: melt butter (photo 1), fry onion (photo 2), fry mushrooms (photo 3), fry garlic (photo 4), stir in flour (photo 5), add stock (photo 6).<\/em><\/p>\n Two things to note as you create the sauce:<\/em><\/p>\n You’ll want the sauce at your desired consistency before<\/strong> you add the beef back in. The beef is cooked, so you don’t want to simmer it any longer than you need to, otherwise it’ll overcook and go chewy.<\/p>\n Making sure you’re using fall-fat sour cream and double\/heavy cream is important to ensure you end up with a nice, rich sauce. Using low-fat sour cream can also increase its chance of curdling too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Process shots: whisk stock (photo 7), add sour cream, double cream, Worcestershire sauce and Dijon (photo 8), stir and simmer (photo 9), stir in beef (photo 10).<\/em><\/p>\n Once everything is combined, you’ll want to serve right away. The longer it sits, the thicker the sauce will get (plus you risk overcooking the beef). From there, I love adding some fresh chives<\/strong> for a final pop of colour and flavour.<\/p>\n To serve, I typically go down 1 of 3 routes:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
