Ingredients
- olive oil or low calorie cooking spray
- 600 g | 1.2 lb sirloin steak cut into thin strips
- 1 large onion (or 2 small onions), finely diced
- 400 g |14 oz mushrooms , sliced (I used chestnut/crimini mushrooms)
- 480 ml | 2 cups beef stock , made with 2 stock cubes
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce (one generous splash)
- 1 tsp tomato paste (optional)
- 150 ml / 2/3 cup reduced fat sour cream or fat free quark cheese
- 2 tbsp cornflour diluted in 2 tbsp cold water to make a slurry
- Salt and pepper to season
- 2 tbsp flat leaf parsley , finely chopped to garnish
Instructions
- Slice your steak into thin even strips and remove any visible fat. Pat dry with kitchen towel. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large casserole dish or skillet (ideally cast iroand spritz lightly with olive oil cooking spray. Flash fry the beef strips, in batches, until nicely browned (doesn't have to be cooked all the way, it can be pink in places). Set aside.
- Deglaze the pan - add a generous splash of stock and quickly scrape any browned bits into the sauce. These will add tons of flavour so don’t skip this step!
- Add the onions and cook for a minute then add the mushrooms. Sauté the vegetables over medium heat, stirring, until they start to soften and colour, about 5 minutes. Add a splash of the beef stock if the pan gets too hot and dry.
- Add the remaining stock and bring everything to a nice simmer.
- Add the beef back into the sauce. Stir in the mustard, Worcestershire sauce and tomato paste if using.
- Reduce the heat. Stir in the sour cream (or creme fraiche /quaruntil incorporated. It might separate or look a bit curdled at this point but don’t worry – it will soon become smooth again.
- Add the cornflour slurry and simmer for a couple of minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Sprinkle with a generous handful of chopped parsley and check the seasoning - add salt and pepper to taste if needed.
- Serve your beef stroganoff over rice, mashed potatoes or pasta with steamed green vegetables on the side.
