Mama Mangia, that is the easiest Sesame beef recipe I have ever seen. I will have to try it.

I also liked the Beef Stroganoff recipe. I have a Hamburger Stroganoff recipe that everyone tells me is great and so good you could use it with sirloin.

Later today I will post it here. I do not have it typed up, it is in my head. So give me some time to type it and then I will share with you all.

As promised I am posting my Hamburger Stroganoff recipe.

Roberta Hunter

2/3 to 3/4 pounds ground chuck
2-3 tablespoons butter
4-6 medium mushrooms
¼ cup chopped onions
1 small garlic clove minced
S&P to taste
¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 – 2/3 cup beef broth (canned or from granules)
6 tablespoons sour cream
Cooked noodles

Brown ground chuck in one tablespoon of the butter

Add another tablespoon of butter along with the onion and garlic

Sauté until onion and garlic is softened

Add the salt and pepper

Add the mushrooms and cook until just beginning to soften

Add Worcestershire sauce and mix well

Stir in the flour

Then add about ¼ - ½ cup of the broth and mix well*

When mixture begins to thicken add the sour cream (do not stir, allow sour cream to melt over low heat, then mix together)

Serve over the noodles with a salad and some sautéed zucchini with onions and Parmesan cheese

* You may need more or less of the broth depending on how thick or thin you want your sauce
