Beef stroganoff with herby pasta

Beef stroganoff with herby pasta

If you usually serve stroganoff with rice, try it with pappardelle pasta instead - it works beautifully with the creamy sauce

Method

  1. Freeze the beef for 45 mins before you begin, slice as thinly as you can, then season.
  2. In a large, non-stick frying pan, melt half the butter with half the oil. Increase the heat, then quickly sear the beef in batches until browned on both sides. Remove the meat and set aside. Repeat with the mushrooms, then set aside with the beef. Boil the pasta.
  3. Add the remaining butter and oil to the pan and soften the shallots for a few mins. Stir in the flour for 1 min, then gradually stir in the stock. Bubble for 5 mins until thickened, then stir in the mustard, purée, crème fraîche and seasoning. Bubble for 1 min more, then return the beef and mushrooms to the pan.
  4. Drain the pasta, toss with half the parsley, season, then serve with the creamy stroganoff, sprinkled with the remaining parsley.

MAKE IT SPICY

Follow recipe up to the end of stage 2, but instead of pasta, boil 300g basmati rice. Soften the shallots in butter, then stir in 2 tbsp curry paste, the tomato purée and flour, then fry for 1 min. Add stock and bubble as before, then stir in crème fraîche or use natural yogurt instead. Serve with rice, and scatter with chopped coriander.

    I didn't have shallots so used an onion - I don't expect it made much difference. We enjoyed this a lot. It does make a nice change to have stroganoff with pasta rather than rice.

    Simple dish, yet extremely tasty.Highly recommended ! Used onion instead of Shallots & English Mustard as an alternative to Dijon . As cooking for 2, I mixed and matched the quantities to suit our taste . Very tasty indeed, will be cooking this again in the very near future.

    This one is now a firm favourite. Worth trying with different types of pasta - we found fresh penne worked well.

    Excellent. Making for 2, so halved the meat..but kept the sauce quantities as above..only a little left over. Added 75ml wine to make up to 300ml of stock. Fresh pasta..brilliant.

    Yet another ABSOLUTELY delicious recipe from Good Food. This was SO easy to make and very light on the `tummy`! I used penne pasta instead as I had plenty of it. Definitely make it again and I give it 5 stars!

    Definitely a new favourite :) I made this for 2, and used 300g beef, but left the quantities for the sauce the same, so there'd be plenty :) I omitted the shallots, parsley and flour, and just used half the amount of beef stock. Will definitely make this again.

    Leacmac83, perhaps the creme fraiche split as you may have added if the sauce was boiling. Add the creme fraiche at the very just to heat through, serve immediately and use Hot plates or dishes to serve. . I use to have that problem all the time. Hope this helps.
