Cold, rainy days call for one thing — proper comfort food.

And few dishes hit the spot quite like a rich, creamy beef stroganoff served over buttery mash, pasta or rice.

At Normanville Meat & Seafood, we believe dishes like this are only as good as the beef you start with. Quality meat makes a huge difference to flavour, tenderness and the overall result on the plate.

A premium cut of beef gives you that beautiful soft texture and rich flavour that turns a simple stroganoff into something worth going back for seconds.

So if you’re looking for the perfect winter warmer, this recipe is a must.

Creamy Beef Stroganoff

Serves: 4–6

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

• 800g premium beef strips or thinly sliced rump steak from Normanville Meat & Seafood
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 brown onion, sliced
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed
• 250g mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 cup beef stock
• 300ml thickened cream
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• Salt and cracked black pepper
• Fresh parsley to serve

Optional serving ideas:

• Creamy mashed potato
• Buttered fettuccine
• Steamed rice
• Crusty bread

Method

1. Brown the Beef

Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over high heat.

Cook the beef in batches until browned. Don’t overcrowd the pan — this helps lock in flavour and gives the beef a beautiful caramelised finish.

Remove and set aside.

2. Build the Flavour

Reduce heat slightly and add onion and mushrooms to the pan.

Cook until softened and golden, then add garlic and paprika.

Stir through tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard.

3. Create the Sauce

Pour in beef stock and simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavours to develop.

Reduce heat and stir through the cream.

Return the beef to the pan and simmer gently for 10–15 minutes until tender and coated in the rich sauce.

Season to taste with salt and cracked pepper.

4. Serve

Finish with fresh parsley and serve over creamy mash, pasta or rice.

Perfect for a cold winter night.
