Beef Stroganoff is. a tasty
dish of tender tidbits OF,
Drowned beef tenderloin or sir
loin and sauteed mushrooms
folded into a rich sour cream
sauce. The blend is skillfully
seasoned with onion, suSpi-
cion of garlic, paprika and
nutmeg and served on a circle
of rice or toast.
The dish is expensive, created
originally for Prince Strogan-
of. and requires care in its
preparation. But the results
are well worth your efforts.
Elegant when served from a
chatting dish, it lends the i'm
pol lance it deserves.
One of Denver's outstanding
culinary artists, Paul Shank,
prefers The sauce favored with
tomato, others do not. MI
Shank is of the latter school
and folds thin strips Of sweet
pickles into the mixture for
a delicious and out-of-th
ordinary flavor.
He suggests that heavy
(whipping) cream be soured
and used in the mixture rather
than commercially prepared
sour cream, The latter, he says,
has fortifying agent that
tends to curdle when heated.
Trim 2 pounds AA grade
sirloin steak or filet of beef
and cut into tidbits not more
than inch long. Il inch wide
and "a inch thick. Season
meat with salt, pepper, a dash
of ,paprika and grating of
nutmeg. Heat 3 tablespoons OF
butter in heavy frying pan
Saute the beef quickly on a
sharp fire for a few minutes.
Meat should be rare rather
than oyercooked,) Remove
meat from skillet and keep it
hot while preparing the sour
cream sauce.
In the pan in which meat
was fried, saute 2 tablespoons
finely chopped onion and u
medium Glove garlic. Then add
4 pound peeled, sliced mush-

stir thoroughly.
To serve, spoon sauce over
toast or a ring of fluffy white
or Drowned rice.
About 4 tablespoons tomato
paste (enough to give sour
cream mixture a delicate rosy
hue or six slices tomato
sauteed until tender, may be
substituted for pickles, if de-
sired.

stantly. Cream may be soured

or by adding tablespoon
lemon juice or vinegar for

Meantime, mix up this
quickie of a sauce: Gradually
beat a half cup of powdered
sugar and a half teaspoon
of instant coffee into one egg.
Whip a half cup of heavy

ding into wedges and top with

Downtown is included in the

was an 11.2 per cent increase on
