A classic version of the dish, beef stroganoff, is made from beef and belongs to traditional Russian cuisine. The first mention of the dish appeared at the end of the 19th century. Since then, to prepare meat Stroganoff style, they began to use not only beef tenderloin, but also offal, such as liver. Unlike meat, liver stews very quickly, and the longer you cook it, the tougher it will be. Today we are preparing liver Stroganoff style.
To prepare Beef Stroganoff from beef liver, we will prepare the main product. Wash the liver and remove films. Cut into small pieces. I first cut the liver, and then cleaned it of films.
Pour boiling water over the tomato, remove the skin, cut into medium-sized pieces. Cut the onion into quarter rings.
Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan and fry the liver over high heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring.
Add tomatoes and onions, reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring, for another 5 minutes until juices form.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of flour evenly over the meat and add 2 tablespoons of sour cream.
Mix the contents of the frying pan, it will turn out something like in my photo. Add 1.5 teaspoons of salt and herbs to taste, I prefer to add basil. Mix again.
Pour in 1-1.5 glasses of water. Stir again, cover with a lid and leave to simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes.
At the very end, sprinkle the stewed beef liver with finely chopped dill.
You can serve liver Stroganoff style with various side dishes, I have with potatoes and pickles. It’s also very tasty to serve buckwheat as a side dish and spread stewed liver and gravy on top of it.
