This is my version of Cleora Butlers Beef Stroganoff. Cleora cooked for my husbands family when his mother was a child in Tulsa Oklahoma. When I think about this very special yummy meal, my mouth waters. Use fresh ingredients. It's well worth the time and effort. Makes wonderful leftovers. Ingredients:
2 lbs beef tenderloin (i have used several types of beef including ground beef with very good results) |
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, divided |
4 medium onions, thinly sliced |
1 1/2 lbs mushrooms, thinly sliced |
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
