The Best Beef Stroganoff

While I was in the Navy, we used to have this at least twice, if not three times a month.  Although the recipe calls for sliced steak, I would imagine that using ground beef (hamburger) would be just fine.

Ingredients

1.5 lb sliced steak
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 large onion
10 oz mushrooms
3 tbsp butter
3 tbsp flour
2 cups beef broth
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
2/3 cup sour cream
1 package of flat noodles

Salt and pepper

Stuff you will need

Skillet
Cutting board
Sharp Knife
Large pot

Directions

Add enough water to the pot to boil the noodles.  Follow the instructions on the package for the noodles.

I used a 14 inch cast iron skillet.  I started by adding the oil and frying the steak.  Don't over cook it.  Just two or three minutes.  Remove from the pan.

Add the remainder of the oil and fry the onions and mushrooms.  Remove from the pan.

Now your going to make a rue with the flour and butter.  Don't over cook the rue.  Add the broth, about a 1/2 cup at a time and continue to stir till smooth.  Add the mustard and the sour cream.  Stir until smooth.

Add the beef and vegetables.  Stir together.

If you timed it correctly, the noodles and the beef mixture will be all done at the same time.  Serve immediately.
