Pork stroganov



Ingredients

4 pork fillets, cut into strips
1 large onion, thinly sliced,
225g mushrooms sliced
300ml sour cream

Heat oil in large frying pan and cook the onion slowly until soft but not coloured.

Add the mushrooms and cook until golden brown. Remove the vegetables from the pan and keep warm.

Increase the heat, and fry the pork very quickly in small batches until lightly coloured.

Return all the pork and vegetables to the pan and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the sour cream and bring to the boil.


This is a classic Russian dish usually made with fillet of beef but i have modified the recipe by using pork and adding peas (to increase the amount of vegetables). Also, I am not too sure whether I am supposed to eat this with pasta...I think traditionally, stroganov is eaten with rice.

I seem to have gone against all orthodoxy with this recipe
