Beef Stroganoff
Description
Beef steak is usually served with dumplings. They are made from a dough prepared with milk, eggs, and wheat flour. The dough is rolled into a sausage shape, cut into pieces, and boiled. Before serving, a slice of lemon is added to the dish, on which a spoonful of thick sour cream is placed. A spoonful of tart jam—cranberry or lingonberry—is then poured over the sour cream.

Step 1
Rinse the beef fillet, dry it, and lightly pound. Cut the ham or bacon into long strips about one centimeter thick. Wrap the strips in the beef to form a roll. Rub the roll with salt, a mixture of peppers, and cinnamon. Sear it in a pan with vegetable oil until golden brown, then bake in the oven for 25 minutes at 180 degrees.
