Mushroom Stroganoff

English Version:

I love this dish! It is full of protein and at the same time magically delicious. A double boiler is a must so the sauce is heated just enough not to curdle the yogurt or lose the living culture that is so beneficial. For directions on making your own double boiler, see the note at end of the recipe.

Mushroom Stroganoff

Serves 4 -5
Ingredients:

A. Sauce

- 1 Tbl. olive oil
- 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
- 1⁄4 kg. fresh mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
- 4 dried or fresh black mushrooms, cleaned and sliced if using dried mushrooms soak in warm water for 30 minutes, drain, discard the stem and thinly slice the caps
- 1 Tbl. cornstarch
- 2 cups yogurt
- 1 250 gm package soft tofu
- 2 Tbl. soy sauce
- 2 Tbl. sherry or Chinese wine (“Soas Tape Siau Hing” found in most supermarkets)
- 1 tsp. mustard powder
- 1 1⁄2 tsp. dill
- 1/8 tsp. paprika powder

B. 1 package (250 gm) pasta, fettuccini, egg noodles, or pasta of your choice.

Directions for the Sauce:

Prepare a double boiler - see the note below. Bring the water in the double boiler to a boil. Turn down the heat until it is barely boiling.

Meanwhile heat the oil in a frying pan. When hot add the onions and sauté until they are soft. Add the mushrooms and cook until soft and the liquid has evaporated. Turn off the heat and set aside.

Into a blender put the cornstarch, yogurt, tofu, soy sauce, Chinese sherry, and mustard powder, and blend until smooth. Put this into the top of the double boiler, stirring until it has thickened, about 15 minutes. When it is thick add the sautéed mushrooms and onion mixture and stir carefully for about 5 minutes. Add the dill and paprika powder and stir again.

Keep the sauce warm in the double boiler until ready to serve.

B. Pasta

Cook the pasta according to the package directions, adding a little bit of olive oil to the water before adding the pasta. Drain.

Serve the pasta with the sauce on top. Sprinkle some paprika on top for color.

Note: To make a double boiler - find a metal or oven glass bowl that just fits inside of a pot making sure it can not fall into the pot. Put about 5 centimeters of water into the pot or so it is just below the bowl. The ingredients go into the bowl and are heated by the boiling water below.

Note: The sauce can be prepared a day ahead and kept in the top of the double boiler in the fridge. Just heat it over boiling water until it is hot when you are ready to eat.

Cara Membuat Saos:

A. Siapkan "double boiler" (lihat pasanan di bawa). Rebus air di "double boiler". Waktu sudah rebus kecilkan api sepaya air rebus pelan pelan.

Panaskan minyak di wajan. Setelah panas, masukkan bawang bombai dan digoreng sampai lemas. Kemudian masukkan jamur segar dan jamur hitam, masak sampai lemas dan cairan di wajan menguap (habis ). Matikan api.

Dalam blender masukkan tepung maezena, yogurt, sherry/saos tape siau hing, tahu,, kecap asin, dan bubuk mustard. Kemudian diblenderkan sampai menjadi tercampur bagus. Setelah itu, taruh isi blender di dalam mangkok. Kemudian di "double boiler" kira-kira 15 menit sampai kental. Lihat pesan ”Double Boiller” di bagian “Teknik”.

Pada saat memasak, saos terus diaduk. Setelah itu tambahkan campuran bawang bombay dan jamur, diaduk pelan-pelan kira-kira 5 menit. Kemudian tambahkan daun dill dan bubuk paprika.

Simpan saos di double boiler sampai siap makan. (Bisa taruh di kulkas satu malam dan panaskan dengan cara di double boiler waktu mau makan.)

B. Mie, panaskan air dalam panci secukupnya, tambahkan sedikit minyak, biarkan air sampai mendidih. Kemudian masukkan mie , masak kira-kira 8-10 menit (periksa instruksi di bunkus dulu). Kemudian tiriskan airnya dengan menggunakan saringan.

C. Siapkan piring yang bagus, taruh mie di atas dengan saos jamur atas mie. Bisa dibubuhi dengan bubuk paprika supaya lebih enak.

Cara “Double Boiler”: masukkan saos dalam mangkok metal atau keramic. Kemudian taruh diatas pot yang berisi air. Ukuran mangkok harus sama atau lebih besar sedikit dengan garis tengah pot. Saat air di pot mendidih, uap airnya akan memanaskan mangkok metal.
