Easy beef and mushroom stroganoff

<p>This version of the classic dish of quick–fried steak with mushrooms shows how vegetables can be used to enhance and ‘stretch’ a modest portion of meat. The result is every bit as special as true stroganoff, and is more in keeping with today's taste for meals that are not dominated by meat.</p> <div id="ingredients"><strong>Ingredients</strong> <ul class="no-bullet"> <li>2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil</li> <li>200 g chestnut mushrooms, halved</li> <li>1 red capsicum, seeded and cut into fine strips</li> <li>200 g broccoli, cut into small florets</li> <li>150 ml beef stock</li> <li>1 onion, sliced</li> <li>300 g fillet steak, cut into thin strips</li> <li>2 tablespoons brandy</li> <li>¼ cup horseradish cream (optional)</li> <li>⅔ cup (160 g) sour cream</li> <li>salt and pepper</li> </ul> </div> <p><strong>Preparation</strong></p> <div> <ol> <li>Heat half of the oil in a large saucepan.</li> <li>Add the mushrooms and fry for 2 minutes or until beginning to soften.</li> <li>Stir in the capsicum and broccoli florets and continue to fry, stirring, for 3–4 minutes.</li> <li>Pour in the stock and bring to the boil.</li> <li>Cover the pan, reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes or until the broccoli is just tender.</li> <li>Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a large frying pan and stir–fry the onion for about 5 minutes or until softened and beginning to brown.</li> <li>Add the strips of beef to the onions and stir–fry for 1 minute or until the beef begins to change colour.</li> <li>Stand safely back from the pan, pour in the brandy and set light to it.</li> <li>As soon as the flames subside, stir in the horseradish cream, if using, and the sour cream.</li> <li>Add the vegetables with their cooking liquid.</li> <li>Stir well, season to taste and serve immediately.</li> <li>A rice pilaff is the traditional Russian accompaniment for stroganoff; tagliatelle is very popular today.</li> <li>Boiled new potatoes are also delicious with this vegetable–rich version.</li> </ol> <p><em>This article first appeared in </em><span><a href="http://www.readersdigest.com.au/recipes/beef-and-mushroom-stroganoff"><em>Reader’s Digest</em></a><em>.

Hickory-smoked beef short ribs

<p>These delicious hickory-smoked beef short ribs can be served sliced off the bone or caveman style on the bone. Serve with a side of mac and cheese and cornbread in winter, or with a side salad or spicy coleslaw in summer.</p> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Serves:</span></strong> 4</p> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Ingredients:</span></strong></p> <ul> <li>2 racks beef short ribs (4-5 bones per rack)</li> <li>2 tablespoons peanut oil (or olive oil)</li> <li>100 g unsalted butter</li> </ul> <p><em>For the rub</em></p> <ul> <li>2 tablespoons freshly cracked black pepper</li> <li>2 tablespoons kosher salt</li> <li>2 tablespoons brown sugar</li> <li>1 tablespoon onion powder</li> <li>1 tablespoon garlic powder</li> <li>1 tablespoon smoked paprika</li> </ul> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Method:</span></strong></p> <p>1. Preheat the barbecue smoker to 140°C.</p> <p>2. Remove the silver skin from the top of the short ribs and also remove the membrane from underside of the beef ribs. Massage the oil onto all sides of the ribs to apply a light coating.</p> <p>3. Combine the rub mixture in a small bowl or container, then evenly apply to the oiled ribs. Depending on the size of the ribs, more mixture may be required. Ensure all areas of the rib meat is covered with rub, concentrating on the top and sides of the meat and then the underside.</p> <p>4. Place the ribs bone down in the barbecue smoker and add hickory wood chips or chunks in small batches in the first 2 hours, being careful to ensure a constant but light and even smoke.</p> <p>5. Allow the ribs to cook for a further 1 hour (3 hours total), then remove from the smoker and double-wrap with foil and butter. Cook in the foil for a further 3 hours.</p> <p>6. Remove the beef ribs from barbecue and carefully open the foil to expel some steam to prevent further cooking. Lightly close the foil back over the ribs and rest for 20 minutes before slicing and serving.</p> <p><img width="174" height="191" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/43922/ribs-cover_174x191.jpg" alt="Ribs Cover" style="float: right;"/></p> <p><em>This is an extract from </em>Ribs<em>, New Holland Publishers RRP $45.00 available from all good bookstores or online, www.newhollandpublishers.com.</em></p>

Sticky beef ribs

<p>This dish is a macadamia extravaganza using macadamias in both the sauce and the sprinkle and macadamia oil in the dressing.

Place the ribs in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Skim any scum that rises to the surface, add remaining ingredients and continue to simmer for 1½ hours. Remove ribs and set aside on a baking tray in a single layer, reserving ¼ cup of cooking liquid.</p> <p>2. Make the Bulgolgi sauce by placing all ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and processing until smooth. Add more sugar for a sweeter sauce and more chilli for a spicier sauce.</p> <p>3. Preheat oven to 180°C. Mix half the bulgolgi sauce with the reserved cooking liquid and brush each rib generously. Place ribs in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, basting after 15 minutes with any leftover sauce, until the ribs are bubbling. </p> <p>4. Meanwhile prepare the sprinkle by preheating oven to 180°C and combining all ingredients thoroughly in a bowl. Line a baking tray with baking paper and spread the sprinkle over in an even layer. Place in the oven and cook for 10-12 minutes, until golden.</p> <p>5. For the dressing, place all ingredients in a jar and shake to combine. Place all salad ingredients in a bowl and toss through the dressing. </p> <p>6. Serve the ribs with the sprinkle, salad and remaining bulgolgi sauce.</p> <p>* You can use any crisp salad leaves, herbs and vegetables of your choice in this salad</p> <p><em>Recipe courtesy of <a href="http://www.australian-macadamias.org/consumer/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Australian Macadamias</span></strong></a>. </em></p>
