Beef Stroganoff

1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak
2 onions chopped fine
1/2 pound mushrooms sliced
1 clove garlic crushed
4-6 T butter

Sauce
2 T flour
1 (10 1/2 oz) can consomme
1 pint sour cream
1/2 t salt
1/4 t pepper
1 t paprika
1 T Worcestershire sauce

Remove the fat from the steak and cut into pencil-thin strips. Saute the onions with the mushrooms and garlic in 4 T butter for about five minutes. Add the beef, more butter if necessary. Season with salt and pepper. Have the heat high and toss the meat continuously for no more than three minutes. Remove the steak and vegetables.

Sauce: Pour off all but 2 T drippings and blend in the flour. Add the consomme and stir until smooth and thickened. Put in the sour cream, salt and pepper to taste and keep the heat low so the cream won't curdle. Add paprika and Worcestershire sauce. Just before serving add the beef and vegetables and heat together for a few minutes. Use more salt if necessary. Serve with noodles. Four servings.
