- 1 lb (450g) beef sirloin or tenderloin, thinly sliced into strips
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 lb (225g) mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup (240ml) sour cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
- Cooked egg noodles or rice, for serving
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Slice the beef into thin strips. Season with salt and pepper.
- Chop the onion and mince the garlic. Slice the mushrooms.
2. Brown the Beef:
- In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil or butter over medium-
high heat.
- Add the beef strips and sauté until browned on all sides, about 3-5 minutes.
Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
3. Cook the Vegetables:
- In the same pan, add the remaining oil or butter.
- Add the chopped onion and mushrooms, sautéing until the onions are
translucent and the mushrooms are golden, about 5-7 minutes.

4. Make the Sauce:
- Sprinkle the flour over the cooked onions and mushrooms, stirring to coat.
- Gradually add the beef broth, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.

sauce thicken for a few minutes.
5. Combine and Finish Cooking:
- Return the browned beef to the pan. Reduce heat and simmer for another 5-10
minutes, until the beef is cooked through and the sauce has thickened to your
liking.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the sour cream until well combined. Adjust
seasoning with salt and pepper.
