A beef stroganoff with porcini mushrooms sounds great for any day, but it is not something that we all want to cook that often. This recipe, though, is easy and doesn’t require you to break the bank to make it. With just a few steps, your gourmet dinner will be ready! 
This Beef Stroganoff with Porcini Mushrooms Is The Dinner You Deserve
To make this dish, dried porcini mushrooms are great, as they add umami and flavor without altering the texture. For texture, on the other hand, you can use fresh cremini mushrooms. Still, if you can’t find either, there are some other options for you to try. Alternative mushrooms to use include shiitake, maitake, oyster, or Portobello. You can use these mushrooms fresh or dry, whichever is easier for you.
As you may know by now, you will need beef to make this dish. Tenderloin strips are good, but you can use other cuts as well. If you prefer, you can go with pork, chicken, or turkey too. If you are trying to stay vegetarian, simply add more mushrooms, or cut up pressed tofu into strips.
When it comes to the flavor, the sauce is the center of this dish, so it requires quite a few ingredients. You will need flour, onion, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, crème Fraiche, and parsley. If you need replacements, use regular mustard, cornstarch, cream, or half and half.
Traditionally, beef stroganoff is served over egg noodles. However, you can use regular pasta noodles, rice, or potatoes.
Be sure to serve your mushroom sauce warm over the beef and make the noodles right before you serve. If you want, add a green salad, asparagus, or green beans.
Don’t wait any longer to treat yourself to a delicious meal that doesn’t take too long to make.
