Beef Stroganoff - Especially for Mark

This recipe is by special request.  It is a dish which sounds complicated but really couldn't be simpler.


1lb (450g) beef
1 tsp salt
Pepper
2 Onions
4oz mushrooms
2oz butter
small splash of oil
1 tbsp plain flour
Tomato puree
1/2 pint stock (stock cube and hot water - from the kettle, not the tap - will do)
1 carton sour cream



  • Cut the meat into small strips, approximately 1/4" x 1"   sprinkle it with salt & pepper
  • Melt butter & oil, fry onions and mushrooms for 4 minutes
  • Add meat - cook for further 5 mins
  • Stir in flour, cook for 2 mins
  • Add tomato puree and stock, bring to boil stirring continuously. 
  • Cover and simmer for approximately 30 minutes, stirring from time to time to prevent it sticking.
  • Stir in cream
  • Serve on a bed of rice.
