A rich, creamy beef dish featuring tender sirloin or fillet, earthy mushrooms, and a tangy sour cream sauce. Inspired by Gordon Ramsay’s method, it’s both comforting and elegant.
1 lb beef sirloin or fillet, thinly sliced
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 shallots, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 tsp Dijon mustard
¼ cup brandy or dry white wine
½ cup beef stock
½ cup sour cream or crème fraîche
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Egg noodles or rice, for serving
Season beef with salt and pepper.
Heat oil and butter in a skillet. Sear beef in batches, 1–2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
Add shallots and garlic; cook until soft.
Add mushrooms; sauté until browned.
Deglaze pan with brandy or wine; simmer 2 minutes.
Stir in mustard and beef stock; simmer 2–3 minutes.
Return beef to the pan; cook 1–2 minutes.
Off heat, stir in sour cream.
Garnish with parsley. Serve hot over noodles or rice.
Use crème fraîche for extra richness. For gluten-free, swap noodles with rice or GF pasta. Reheat gently to avoid curdling.
