INGREDIENTS
2 lbs prime hamburger filet or sirloin
39 g flour partitioned

57 g demi-glace*

INSTRUCTIONS
Cut meat along the grain into strips 1 inch long by ¼ inch wide; season with salt and pepper. Hurl in 4 T (8 g) of flour, holding 1 T for sauce. In an enormous pot over medium-high warmth, cook meat until seared; move to a plate; put in a safe spot. Add onions and mushrooms to the container; keep cooking until light dark-colored; move these to the plate with meat. Include margarine and remaining 1T flour to the container, blending continually over low warmth for 2 minutes. Mix in demi-glace, hamburger juices, and acrid cream; add salt and pepper to taste. Include meat, onions, and mushrooms; heat delicately on low 15 minutes (don’t stew).
*Purchase demi-glace at Williams-Sonoma, Whole Foods, or amazon.com; or lessen an excellent hamburger stock or consommé.
Serve over buttered pasta or rice or with potato straws in the more commonplace Russian design.
