Not your typical beef stroganoff, my weeknight recipe uses surprise Asian ingredients to pump up the volume on the savoury scale. And that steak? So tender and as far from tough and grey as you can get! Creamy, rich and comforting, serve this weeknight dinner with your pasta of choice.
500g (1 lb) rump steak
2 tbsp soy sauce
300g (10 oz) dried pasta (e.g. pappardelle, fusilli or penne)
1 tbsp vegetable oil
50g (1.7 oz) butter, plus 1 tbsp extra
300g (10 oz) button or Swiss brown mushrooms, quartered
sea salt
1 shallot, finely diced
1½ cups beef stock
1 tbsp shiro miso paste
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tsp sweet paprika
1 cup thickened cream (also called heavy cream or pouring cream)
3 tsp cornflour (cornstarch), mixed with 3 tbsp water
finely chopped fresh parsley, to serve
-
Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Season generously with salt.
-
Use a fork to poke lots of little holes in your steaks. Then combine the steaks with the soy sauce and allow to marinate for 10 minutes.
-
When your pot of water comes to the boil, add the pasta and cook according to packet instructions.
-
In the meantime, heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Sear the steaks for 2 minutes each side or until slightly charred. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and allow to rest (the steaks will still be rare at this point).
-
Place the pan back onto a medium-high heat (without cleaning it) and add the butter. Once the butter is foaming, add the mushrooms and season with salt. Without stirring, allow them to sear for a minute or until they start to turn golden. Then flip and turn them over. Toss through the shallots and cook for another minute.
-
Pour in the beef stock. Then stir through the miso paste, mustard and sweet paprika. Simmer for 5 minutes. As the sauce is simmering, cut the rested steaks into slices.
-
Reduce the heat to low and stir through the cream. Add the cornflour mixture and stir through, then simmer for a minute or until the sauce has thickened slightly
-
Add the beef and any of the resting juices into the cream sauce and allow to gently simmer for half a minute or until the beef is just cooked through to your liking. Drain the cooked pasta and add into the sauce. Toss until well combined. Divide among serving bowls and top with parsley.
Superb!
First attempt for trying one of your recipes and it came out really well.
I was missing one ingredient (shiro miso paste) but it wasn’t even missed as I added additional seasonings to my likings.
Nice twist
Quick and tasty. Did not use the stock but loved the mix of flavours! Have made it with chicken as well (marinated in soy/starch mix) Have successfully used a low fat quark as well. Will make it again
