✨ Ingredients

For the Beef:
500 g (1.1lbs) beef sirloin or rump steak, thinly sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt & pepper, to taste
For the Sauce:
1 tbsp butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
250 g (8.8 oz) mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini)
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
200 ml (¾ cup) beef stock
150 ml (⅔ cup) sour cream
1 tbsp plain flour (optional, for thicker sauce)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1
Sear the Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Season the sliced beef with salt and pepper. Sear in batches for 1–2 minutes until browned. Set aside.
2
Cook the Veggies: In the same pan, lower heat to medium and add butter. Sauté the onions until translucent (about 3 minutes), then add garlic and cook for another minute.
3
Add Mushrooms: Toss in the mushrooms and cook until soft and golden, around 5 minutes. Stir occasionally.
4
Make the Sauce: Stir in Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Pour in beef stock and simmer for 5 minutes. If using flour, mix it with a tablespoon of water and add now to thicken the sauce.
5
Stir in Sour Cream: Reduce heat to low and add sour cream. Stir gently until smooth and creamy—do not boil.
6
Combine with Beef: Return the seared beef to the pan and stir through. Simmer for 2 minutes to heat through.
7
Serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or steamed rice.
