I cannot
believe that I haven't posted this recipe before. This was one of the staple dishes from my
starving student days, from the mother of one of my roommates (the same mother
who gave me the Apple Goodie recipe, for which I will be forever
grateful!). It was quick and
inexpensive, and it tastes good. We
added it to our rotation of kielbasa dishes (kielbasa with noodles, kielbasa
with potatoes, kielbasa with rice, kielbasa with cabbage, and so on…hey, kielbasa
was cheap!).
We used to make
it with those white pizza mushrooms, which was about all you could get back
then. You can use more exotic ones these
days, but any delicate ones will be pretty much drowned out by the rest of the
dish.
SAUSAGE STROGANOFF
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 lb. sliced mushrooms
1 lb. ground sausage
3 Tblsp lemon juice
3 Tblsp white wine
1 can beef broth
1 tsp salt
Pepper
1/4 lb. medium egg noodles (about two cups)
1 cup sour cream
Melt the butter in a skillet and saute the onion, garlic and
mushrooms. Add sausage and cook,
stirring, until the red color of the meat has disappeared (this is not
critical, since the dish will cook for half an hour after this step). Add the lemon juice, wine, broth, salt and
pepper. Simmer gently, uncovered, for 15
minutes.
Stir in the uncooked noodles.
Cover and continue to simmer until the noodles are tender (approx. 15
min.)
Mix in the sour cream. Heat
quickly but do not boil (that would curdle the sour cream).
Serves 4

Sheila, I can just imagine how tasty this is. It blows me away that the uncooked noodles are added to the mixture. So easy! Love it!

Me too Krista--makes it look so easy with only one dirty pan.
DeleteI've got the book on order Sheila, can't wait!
I make a very similar recipe only using ground beef. I suppose you could take it a step further and use ground turkey if you really needed to watch your fat--which in my case is probably a good idea since my husband recently had a quintuple bypass! Want to help keep his new pipes clean!
ReplyDeleteLOL on kielbasa with everything -- that brings back memories. 4 day countdown to BURIED IN A BOG. W00t! Enjoy your release week, Sheila!

Ah, surviving college. Cheap eats. Have a friend who lived on grilled cheese sandwiches (you can be sure there was no brie anywhere around! The cheapest bread and cheese available) and tomato soup. Mind you, the "tomato soup" was catsup thinned with water and heated! Yuck.
ReplyDeleteYour dish sounds much more appealing!
Can't wait for Buried in a Bog, Sheila! Love your stuff and this recipe sounds like a keeper. Thanks!
