Serves: 4
Course: Main Course
Cooking Time: 0 hr 15 mins
Ingredients
  • 1 onion, finely diced
  • 400g mixed mushrooms, sliced thickly
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1tbs paprika
  • 150ml stock
  • Handful parsley, finely chopped
  • 50ml cream
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • ½tsp salt
  • Black pepper
  • TO SERVE
  • 1 loaf crusty white bread, sourdough
  • Or cooked rice

Place a large frying pan on a medium heat. Add a little olive oil and sauté the onions until soft. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute. Transfer everything to a bowl and set aside. Wipe the pan clean with a piece of kitchen paper then add a tbsp of oil and place on a high heat. Cook the mushrooms until browning at the edges, return the onion to the pan. Add the paprika and stock. Everything will bubble nicely. Season with salt and pepper then remove from the heat and add the cream. Stir gently to combine.

Toast the bread in thick slices or cook the rice.

Just before serving add the lemon juice and chopped parsley. Spoon the stroganoff over hot buttered pieces of toast. Serve right away with a lemon wedge and some fresh black pepper.
