BLESBOK STROGANOFF

By Jan Braai | Published November 8, 2019

Originally from Russia, this version of the old classic is right at home here in the Democratic Republic of Braai.

The most important procedure is to flash-fry thin strips of steak so that they have the taste of having endured intense heat, without completely drying out. It is best to do this is in your large fireproof pan, as there is no better way to truly generate lots of heat than with the licking flames of a proper wood fire.
