How to cook pork beef stroganoff?

Beef Stroganoff - one of the most popular meat dishes of Russian cuisine.Traditionally it is made from beef, however, there are other modifications of the recipe. For example, this dish can be cooked using pork meat.

The average cooking time of pork beef stroganoff is 35-40 minutes (the time frame may vary depending on the power of your oven).

In order to make a tasty, quick and properly cooked dish, you should choose a frying pan with thick walls as a cooking pot - this will ensure even cooking of meat and, as a result, improve the taste of the finished beef stroganoff.

There are a large number of recipes beef stroganoff. Consider step by step the simplest (classic).

So, for cooking you need to take:

• pork - 500 grams (it is preferable to cook beef stroganoff from tenderloin, but you can also take other meat);
• sour cream - 150 grams;
• onions - 1 head;
• broth - 300 milliliters;
• tomato paste - 50 grams;
• flour - 1 tablespoon;
• vegetable oil - 40 milliliters;
• dill - 20 grams (you can use other herbs to taste);
• Bay leaf;
• salt and pepper to taste.

Before proceeding to the immediate cooking procedure, it is necessary to do the preparatory stage: the meat must be thoroughly washed, dried, and then slightly repelled.

Only after you have beaten off the meat a little, can it be cut into slices. The traditional type of beef stroganoff is a thin straw.

After you have prepared the meat, you need to peel and wash the onion, and then cut it into half rings. Dill (or other selected herbs) must also be chopped.

Next on the fire, you need to put the pan, which should be poured vegetable oil. When the oil is well warmed, pour the onion into the pan and fry it until transparent. Then you can add chopped pork. Meat with onions should be stewed in a pan with the lid raised for 7-10 minutes.

The next step is to add flour (it is necessary to sift it beforehand). After the flour, add the tomato paste to the pan. Mix the resulting mass and simmer for a few minutes.

Next, in the pan it is also necessary to pour the broth (you can take vegetable or meat), and then - sour cream. At the same time, salt and pepper the dish, as well as add the bay leaf. Stew stroganoff until cooked, at the end sprinkle the meat with dill.

In order to speed up and simplify the cooking process, beef stroganoff can be prepared in a slow cooker (to do this, select the required mode on the device control panel).

Usually, all the ingredients of the dish are lowered into the multicooker bowl, and then an automated cooking process takes place.

More difficult to prepare is pork beef stroganoff with mushrooms and gravy. Traditionally, this dish is usually combined with simple side dishes: mashed potatoes or pasta.

To make beef stroganoff for this recipe, you will need:

• pork - 400 grams;
• onions - 1 head;
• mushrooms - 200 grams (white mushrooms are traditionally used, but they can be replaced with champignons or other mushrooms to your taste);
• sour cream - 200 grams;
• flour - 20 grams;
• tomato paste - 2 tsp;
• vegetable oil - 40 milliliters;
• purified cool water - 200 milliliters;
• spices to taste.

To prepare this dish, you will need a large frying pan, which must be immediately set on fire. Pour oil into the pan and wait until it warms up well.

In the meantime, it is necessary to peel, wash and chop the onions and mushrooms (cut the onion into thin straws, and the mushrooms into plates).

When the oil warms up, pour the onion into the pan, and after a few minutes add the mushrooms. Fry this mass for 3-5 minutes.

While the vegetables are fried, proceed to the preparation of pork. It, as in the previous recipe, must be discarded, cut into strips, and also immediately sprinkled with sifted flour.

Now add the meat to the vegetables in the pan and simmer for about 10 minutes. After the time, add the tomato paste.

While the dish is stewing, sour cream must be diluted with water and pour the liquid into the pan. At this stage, also add spices. By the readiness of the dish you will get juicy meat in a creamy sauce.

For those who do not like meat, cooks recommend making pork liver beef stroganoff. This dish you can cook for any of the above recipes with several differences.

It is logical that liver should be used instead of meat; however, it is not only this ingredient that will have to be replaced. For a richer taste instead of sour cream should be used cream. Thus, your beef stroganoff will be more tender and will literally melt in your mouth.

In addition, if you prepare a dish according to this recipe, you will significantly reduce not only financial costs (liver is much cheaper than meat), but also reduce cooking time. Beef stroganoff from the liver with cream is served with a side dish and herbs.

Despite the fact that beef stroganoff is a classic Russian dish, it is popular all over the world. The traditional combination of meat and creamy tomato sauce will not leave indifferent even the most demanding guest.
