Estrogonofe is a beloved Brazilian twist on the classic beef stroganoff, featuring tender beef cooked with cream and mushrooms.
This dish has become a staple in Brazilian cuisine, often enjoyed at family gatherings and special occasions.
To make Estrogonofe, start by chopping the beef, onions, garlic, and mushrooms. Cook the beef in butter until it is browned, then add the onions, garlic, and mushrooms, and sauté until they are soft. Finally, add the tomato sauce and cream, and let it simmer until the flavors meld together.
Feel free to customize your Estrogonofe by adding different vegetables or spices to suit your taste. Some people like to add a splash of Worcestershire sauce or a pinch of paprika for extra flavor.
In Brazil, Estrogonofe is typically served with white rice and shoestring potatoes, which add a delightful crunch to the creamy dish.
While Estrogonofe is a rich and satisfying meal, it is also quite indulgent. If you are watching your calorie intake, you may want to enjoy it in moderation or pair it with a light salad to balance out the richness.
