Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Peel the onion head and cut into thin half rings. If the husks are difficult to clean, you can pre-soak the onions in warm water for 5-10 minutes.

Step 2

Step 2
Grease the pan that we will use for baking with a drop of vegetable sunflower oil.

Step 3

Step 3
Place onion half rings in the first layer on a baking sheet.

Step 4

Step 4
Wash the beef and dry it slightly. And cut across the fibers into portioned pieces no more than 2 cm high. The main secret to the success of French-style beef is to beat the meat well. To do this, it is best to use a special meat tenderizer knife. But I still donʼt have one.

Step 5

Step 5
Therefore, I usually just cover the pieces of meat with a regular plastic bag to prevent splashes from flying in all directions, and beat the beef with a mallet. You need to beat the meat very carefully and on both sides.

Step 6

Step 6
Place the chopped beef on a baking sheet on top of the onions. At this stage, the meat should be salted to taste.

Step 7

Step 7
For washed champignons, it is necessary to update the cut of the stack. The mushroom skirt can be removed, but it doesn’t bother me. Cut the mushrooms into thin slices.

Step 8

Step 8
Add champignons to meat. Pepper to taste.

Step 9

Step 9
Sour cream must be diluted with boiled water and add paprika for taste. I always use 10-15% sour cream and smoked paprika. But this is not important.

Step 10

Step 10
Pour sour cream and paprika over the mushrooms.

Step 11

Step 11
We grate the semi-hard cheese on a coarse grater and sprinkle our future meat on top, French style. Bake the beef in the oven at 200 degrees for about 30-40 minutes.
