(Be boiling a few peeled potatoes at the same time.)
When done, add the meat and one can of Campbell's concentrated mushroom soup base.
Heat to point where it begins to bubble, then turn heat down.
Drain the boiled potatoes and put in serving dish.
Add 1/2 pint sour cream to meat/onion/soup sauce and stir in well, then place this sauce into serving dish.
Then forthwith serve to everyone. Each person to fork-mash his potatoes, spoon Homburg Stroganoff sauce over it, and enjoy!
Homburg Hamburg
(I'm always mistyping and posting w/o checking the copy)
(I'm an old bachelor, and this is so easy to make. For even one person, the extra sauce keeps as left-overs on toast for breakfast!)
Even if you don't make this today, get some hamburg and make it again soon. It's really good and simple to make.
Hamburg Stroganoff.
My mom used to make the same thing...she called it Poor Man’s Stroganoff. She served it on rice or egg noodles.
My dad was opinionated about eating the same thing more than once in a week...basically he wouldn’t want 2 Italian dishes in a week, etc.
So my mom got very creative with hamburger, since there were a lot of us and she had to make that lb of hamburger go a long way.
She would also make a white sauce, and add ground beef that had been fried with lots of diced celery and onion. She called it “Creamed Hamburger”, served it over rice...and it was very tasty. She’d do the same thing with hard boiled eggs. Make a white sauce, add the whites of the boiled eggs to the sauce, serve it on toast points, and crumble the egg yolks on the top. Another very tasty meal. She’d use hamburger, rice and canned tomato mixture for stuffed peppers, and even for cabbage rolls. She was very creative with hamburger
P.S. I’m “old” :) so when I was a kid, it was before the taco and Tex-mex food was introduced, at least in our neck of the woods. First time I ever had a taco was when I was in college.
