Russian Beef Stroganoff



Flip it!

This recipe looks awesome! I can’t wait to make it. I am planning to make it the day before and reheat it for my dinner party. Is this an option, or will it ruin the dish? If you have any tips for reheating, please share.

i made this last night and it was the best beef stroganoff recipe ever. So simple so flavourful The brandy adds to the layers of richness. Thank you for sharing your family tradition with ya. Yummy I’m so glad i have a tiny bit of leftovers for my lunch today

I don’t want to say this recipe is the most popular for a reason. There are so many other recipes on here that should definitely be tied for most popular. HOWEVER, that being said, this recipe is the most popular, for a reason. 🙂

This brings me back to my Ukrainian Grandmother making this, and yes, ALWAYS over mashed potatoes. I tried to recreate hers but it never tasted the same. I now know i was missing the brandy. This recipe is a keeper!

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 pound sirloin steak, pounded to 1/4-inch thickness and cut into thin strips across the grain
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon tomato pastesalt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon water, or as needed (optional).

Directions:

Place flour in a bowl. Toss beef strips in flour until coated on all sides.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute streak strips in the hot oil until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add sour cream, tomato paste, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Add some water if mixture is too thick.
Cover and simmer over low heat until meat is cooked through and soft, 20 to 25 minutes.

Note:

Depending on the cut and quality of the meat, the cooking time can be significantly longer, up to 1 hour, if the meat is very tough.
