Cheat's Stroganoff

I messaged my foodie-friend Sarah recently for inspiration when I was stuck for dinner ideas. She suggested Strog - so I had something completely different! But on Friday I bought some reduced-price frying steak cut in very thin slices........



 I didn't have any sour cream - or indeed any cream in the fridge - so I cheated. Soften sliced onions in butter/oil, add sliced mushrooms and strips of steak, together with a little garlic puree and paprika. Fry gently for no more than a couple of minutes, add a little flour, cook through and add milk, stirring constantly. Season with chicken bouillon powder and serve with rice or noodles. I had sprouts, baton carrots and parsnips.......
