Beef Stroganoff With Cremini Porcini Mushrooms Recipes

BEEF STROGANOFF WITH CREMINI & PORCINI MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Combine the beef broth and dried porcini in a small saucepan.
• Bring to a boil, remove from heat, cover, and let steep for 30 minutes.
• With a slotted spoon, lift the porcini out of the broth, chop coarsely and set aside.
• Strain the broth through a sieve and set aside.
• Heat 1 tbsp of the oil and the butter in a large skillet (not a non-stick) over medium high heat.
• When the oil is hot, add the cremini mushrooms and saute, stirring often until they are browned, 5- 6 minutes.
• Transfer to a bowl.
• Season the beef strips generously with kosher salt and pepper and dredge in the flour.
• Add 2 tbsp oil to the pan and heat over medium-high heat.
• When oil is hot, add the beef, spreading it in a single layer.
• After about a minute, turn each piece to brown the other side.
• Don't overcook!
• Work quickly, the whole process only takes a couple of minutes.
• Remove beef to the same bowl with the cremini.
• (Work in smaller batches, if you prefer).
• Melt the remaining 3 tbsp butter in the pan over medium-high heat.
• Add the onion.
• Saute, scraping up the browned meat bits at the bottom of the pan.
• When the onions just start to brown (about 4- 5 min), pour in the reserved porcini soaking broth.
• Stir in the mustard, Worcestershire sauce, porcini, cremini and beef, along with any accumulated juices.
• Bring to a simmer while stirring.
• Cook just until the sauce thickens slightly, 1- 2 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and stir in the creme fraiche, just until it's incorporated and heated through.
• Taste, and adjust seasonings.
• Serve over cooked noodles, sprinkled with parsley.

MUSHROOM STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Place a large (12-inch) skillet on medium-high heat. Add olive oil and onion, season with salt, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened. Add the mushrooms, thyme and garlic, and stir to combine. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, leaving it undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes at a time before stirring, to allow the mushrooms to caramelize.
• Pour in the wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom, then cook for about 1 minute. Add the vegetable stock and soy sauce, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the liquid has reduced and is slightly thickened.
• Take the pan off the heat, and stir in the mustard and crème fraîche. Taste, and season with salt and black pepper. Dust with paprika, scatter with parsley and serve with your choice of mashed potatoes, wide egg noodles or rice.
