Ingredients

  • 1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
  • 3 cups beef stock or water
  • 1 1/2 pounds ground (beef) chuck
  • 1 large onion, finely minced
  • 6 slices white bread, cut into 1/4-inch dice (get thin slice)
  • Salt and pepper
  • 12 ounces crimini mushrooms (or mixed exotic mushrooms)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon sweet Hungarian (Szegedy) paprika

Toss the crimini mushrooms in the flour and saute them in the same pan. Add the dried mushrooms, stock mixture and cream. Cook for 3 minutes. Stir in paprika. Swirl in 1-cup sour cream just before serving. Serve over 1 sheet of fresh pasta (schmata), with healthy drizzle of additional sour cream.
