Ingredients

  • 500 g beef sausages
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 100 g bacon roughly chopped
  • 1 medium brown onion sliced
  • 500 g button mushrooms sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves crushed
  • 2 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • ¾ cup beef stock
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Fry the sausages (500g) in olive oil until they are cooked through, then remove them to a plate.
  • Add bacon (100g - roughly chopped) and onion (1 medium onion - sliced) to the same pan, and cook over medium heat until onion starts to soften. Then add mushrooms (500g - sliced) to the pan, continuing to fry until the mushrooms are browned.
  • Then add tomato paste (2 tbsp) and garlic (2 cloves - crushed) to the mushroom mixture and mix well. Stir over medium-high heat for 1 minute.
  • Add beef stock (¾ cup), dijon mustard (2 tbsp), sweet paprika (1 tsp) and thyme leaves (2 tsp) to the mushroom mixture and mix well to incorporate, then bring to a simmer.
  • Add back the sausages (whole or sliced) and continue to simmer until they are heated through. Stir through sour cream (½ cup) and serve.

Notes

  • Stroganoff is traditionally served with long wide pasta noodles, but you could also serve it with mashed potatoes or rice.
  • The overall taste of your sausage stroganoff really comes down to one thing - the sausages. But that doesn't mean you need to use super fancy/expensive ones. Use sausages you enjoy eating. Here at home we like the more rustic, chunky style of sausages so that's what I've used for this stroganoff.
  • You can slice the sausages before you put them back into the sauce to reheat or leave them whole.
  • Got some cooked sausages in the fridge leftover from last night's barbie? This recipe is a great way to repurpose those leftovers! Just add them in at the end.
