Best Tblisi Beef & Mushrooms

Directions

Mix the spices in a bowl and set aside. Place the meat on a cutting board and cut into ¾ inch chunks. Lay these chunks flat and sprinkle with the spice mixture. Cook the noodles and allow to remain in the water.

Take a large, heavy pot and place it on high heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and then the onions. Sauté until onions are turning translucent. Add the meat and the remaining spice mixture.

Stir and cook for approximately 4 to 6 minutes. Add the stock. Scrape the pot bottom for the crusts and mix them into the meat. Cook for 6 minutes more and reduce the heat to Medium-High and stir in the sifted flour.

Stir and cook for 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for 3 more minutes. Whisk in the sour cream or yogurt and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Drain the noodles, place a serving of noodles on each plate and serve the meat mixture over the noodles.
