Beef Stroganoff on Pasta
Beef stroganoff according to Wikipedia is a Russian dish of sauteed pieces of beef served in a smetana or sour cream. A lot of countries have adopted the dish and put their own modifications to it. This dish is very simple and so easy to prepare. It's one of the quick meals I prepare in the Knight kitchen. We usually serve it on pasta or rice. The dish below was made very simple and quick for my family's Saturday lunch. Here's my simple recipe:
