This is the second night of the Stroganoff. The first night, it was more sour cream-y, and served over lightly curried rice, with a side of broccoli. Last night I resurrected it and added a bit of intensely condensed tomato paste without adding any additional sour cream. It made a completely different dish from the first night. I added some additional sautéed onions, but not any additional mushrooms, which had been plentiful the night before. This time it was over the more traditional egg noodles, since we had eaten up all of the curried rice.
The fresh asparagus, with butter and lemon, was the perfect foil for the relative heaviness of the meat and sauce. It sure did go down easy! ;->
I love beef stroganoff and don’t know why i eat it so seldom. It looks delicious!

The two variations made for interesting meals. I found the picture of the first iteration, and will post it soon. It was easy to change the whole personality of the two meals – for those who don’t like to eat the same thing more than once a week! ;-> I found tomato paste in a jar, which is more acceptable than in a can. It is really flavorful, so a little bit goes a long way. Great to smear on a pizza crust and sprinkle on some Italian herbs and extra oregano for the “sauce” part.

I often eat leftovers the following day for lunch or dinner. Don’t mind it at all, in fact, it sometimes tastes better the 2nd time around.
