    Gasthaus beef stroganoff


    Source of Recipe


    Gasthaus German Restaurant

    List of Ingredients




    2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    1 pound beef tenderloin, cut into strips about ¼ inch thick
    ¼ medium onion, diced
    6 button mushrooms, diced
    2 tablespoons beets, diced (canned beets are OK)
    2 tablespoons diced sweet pickles (such as gherkins)
    1 tablespoon red wine
    ½ cup beef broth
    ½ cup heavy cream

    Recipe



    1. In a saucepan or skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat and when it begins to sizzle, add the beef tenderloin, in batches if necessary, and sauté quickly, about a minute on each side.

    Set aside and keep warm. You don't want to crowd the beef, or it will not brown properly.



    2. In the same pan, melt the remaining butter over medium-low heat, and when sizzly, add the onion, mushrooms, beets and pickles. Sauté about 2 minutes, then add wine, stirring up any brown bits on the bottom, and reduce until it is almost boiled away.


    3. Add the beef broth and cream, increase heat, and bring to boil. Remove from heat, stir in the meat, and serve.

    At Gasthaus, this dish is served with spaetzle, a boiled dumpling.

    Serves 4.
