This is a recipe I've used for a very long time. In the early 70's Betty Crocker came out with Recipe cards. You would join the club and get a big file box and new cards each month to complete the collection. I've only saved a few of the cards. This is one that is dated 1971.
2 lbs beef tenderloin or sirloin steak
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 6oz can of sliced mushrooms
2 cans of condensed beef broth
1/3 cup instant minced onions
1/4 cup of ketchup
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic salt
1/3 cup flour
2 cups sour cream
8 to 10 ounces of uncooked medium noodles
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
Cut meat across the grain into 3/4 inch slices, then into strips 3x1/4 inch. Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large skillet. Cook and stir mushrooms in butter for about 5 minutes; remove mushrooms.
In the same skillet, brown the meat. Reserving 2/3 cup of the broth, stir in the remaining broth, the onion, ketchup, and garlic salt. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Blend reserved broth and the flour; stir into meat. Add mushrooms; heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir for 1 minute. Stir in Sour Cream; heat through.
Cook noodles as directed on the package; drain. Toss with the 3 tablespoons of butter. Serve with stroganoff.
