It has been quite a hectic week at work with Kindergarten-Second grade Reading and Math testing and grades due for progress reports. I have been tired when I finally leave work so quick and easy supper has been the way to go. Tonight we are having Deer Stroganoff and cresent rolls. It's simple to make and the meat can be changed to suit preference. There are many different ways to make stroganoff but I've found this to be the easiest, with the least ingredients, and the best flavor. Don't skip the dijon mustard, there is no flavor punch without it!
Piece of advice I picked up from Ina Garten, the Barefoot Contessa: When boiling noodles of any type, salt the water generously. The water should remind you of seawater. This produces flavorful noodles that compliment the meal rather than noodles that just hold sauce.
Deer Stroganoff
1 1/2 lbs cubed deer meat (can substitute cubed beef or pork)
6 oz egg noodles (half a bag; can substitute no-yolk noodles)
1 can beef consumme
1-2 tbsp dijon mustard
1/2 cup sour cream
Salt, pepper, season salt, garlic powder, onion powder
Boil the noodles in salty water according to package directions. Season meat as desired. In large saucepan, add seasoned meat and sear on both sides (about 3 mins per). Add the can of beef consumme and dijon mustard. Use a whisk to incorporate. Simmer for about 5 minutes. Add the sour cream and whisk to incorporate. Add the noodles and simmer for about 10 minutes.
Be careful not to cook with temperature to high. If the sauce cooks out, there will be no sauce. Serve with cresent rolls! Dipping the rolls in the sauce is the best!
