Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the straw potatoes: peel and cut the potatoes into thin matchsticks, soak them for 30 minutes in cold water, then fry at 350°F until golden brown.

  2. 2

    Cook the rice according to package instructions in salted water, then drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the salad: wash and chop the lettuce, cut the tomatoes and cucumber into pieces, and dress with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

  4. 4

    Cut the beef into approximately 1-inch cubes. Brown in a hot skillet with a little oil, season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

  5. 5

    In the same skillet, sauté the sliced onions for 5 minutes, then add the quartered mushrooms and cook for 8 minutes.

  6. 6

    Return the beef to the pan, add the mustard and paprika, and mix well.

  7. 7

    Pour in the beef broth, cover, and let simmer for 15 minutes.

  8. 8

    Add the crème fraîche at the end of cooking, stir gently, and let reduce for 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning.

  9. 9

    Plating: place the rice in the center of the plate, top with the stroganoff, serve the salad on the side, and garnish with the straw potatoes.

💡 Chef's Tip

For an even creamier stroganoff, whisk an egg yolk into the crème fraîche before adding it to the pan. Straw potatoes are best prepared using a mandoline. The meat should be seared quickly to ensure it remains tender.
