Beef stroganoff
Beef stroganoff is beef and mushrooms sauteed in butter then simmered in sour cream. It is good with bread and butter or pasta. I served it to my family for dinner tonight with pasta, and bread and butter on the side. According to Askmen.com, beef stroganoff originated from St. Petersburg in Russia, a concoction of the winner in a culinary competition. The chef named the winning dish in honor of his employer, the Count Pavel Alexandrovich Stroganov.

The classic beef stroganoff uses beef tenderloin. But note that you can substitute less expensive cuts of beef like brisket. Parboil the beef, chill then cut into strips.
You will need about a cup of sour cream to make this dish. If commercial sour cream is unavailable, make your own. Directions are given in the recipe.
This recipe uses beef brisket and homemade sour cream.

Hi Connie,
pardon my ignorance.
- what do you mean by “parboiled”?
- as for the pimientos, i only know the ones that are canned. where can i find fresh ones? is there a different name to it? thanks a lot!
Link to definition of Parboil.
Pimientoes are smaller and sweeter bell peppers. They’re widely available in public markets and supermarkets.
hi ms. connie! i would like to ask for your advice. my friend and i are hosting a lunch. she picked out lasagna and chicken, bec they are her specialties. i originally wanted to bring chicken cordon bleu but it will be redundant. im thinking of making a pork version but i think it might end up dry. do you think beef stroganoff would pair well with my friend’s choices? do you have any suggestions on what i can cook?
hi ms connie,,i will try your recipe beef stew.tanong ko lang po kung ano yung chili pepper?
thnaks.
