Had some thin sliced rump steak (minute steak) left over from yesterdays Cricket barbecue so decided to make a quick Stroganoff for tea.
Beef Rump Minute steak or extra thin sliced rump is a fantastically versatile ingredient and if you keep a few slices in the freezer they are also very handy as they defrost very quickly at room temperature or in the fridge. Ask your butcher if they can slice some rump or top rump on the slicer for you.
Beef Stroganoff a British institution? but the name suggests otherwise! actually typical of medieval Russian cookery and now popular throughout Europe, Brazil, Portugal and most of the western World.
