ingredients
- 200 g streaky bacon or 200 g pancetta, diced
- 29.58 ml olive oil
- 9.85 ml butter
- 4 medium onions, sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 2 kg beef, sinew and fat removed and diced
- 14.79 ml plain flour
- 1.23 ml salt
- 2.46 ml fresh ground black pepper
- 200 ml beef stock
- 1 lemon juice
- 59.16 ml paprika
- 2 (460 g) can mushrooms, sliced
- 1000.0 ml mushroom soup
- 500 ml cream (Creme Fresh)
- 1 kg macaroni
directions
- Fry off the diced Streaky Bacon (or Pancetta) in the Butter and a Olive Oil until just starting to colour.
- Add the Onions and Garlic and cook until softened, stirring often.
- Add the Beef and stir.
- Sprinkle over the tablespoon of Flour, add 3 of the 4 tablespoons of Paprika (reserving 1 spoonful for presentation) and season with the Salt and Pepper - stir.
- Squeeze your lemon juice into the pot through your hands catching any pips, or use a reamer.
- Drain the tinned Mushrooms.
- Add the Stock, Mushroom Soup and Sliced Mushrooms.
- Add the Crème Fresh but keep back a couple of tablespoons for presentation.
- Secure your lid and when the cooker gets up to pressure, cook for 30 minutes.
- You can smell when it's ready, it is divine! Move your pot off the heat and turn of your hob. I always allow my pot to de-pressurise on its own, I don't try to rush it by taking the 'whistle' bit off otherwise I end up with Strog stuck to the bottom, but please, you follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your cooker as I'm sure they are all slightly different.
- While the cooker is de-pressurising, get a big pan of water on the boil for the pasta and follow the instructions on the packet (or not, it says 5 to 6 minutes on the brand I buy, but it always takes more like 10!).
- Serve Stroganoff on top of pasta in a bowl (like Spaghetti Bolognaise).
- Put a dollop of the remaining Crème fresh in the middle of each bowl and a pinch of the remaining Paprika over that and around the sides for a bit of decoration.
- Enjoy! :) p.s. This freezes really well if you don't have 12 people to feed!
