Recipe by Kozmic Blues

This delicious vegetarian version of stroganoff comes from one of my favorite cookbooks: The Vegetarian Meat and Potatoes Cookbook. It was also suggested that cooked green beans can be added to this at the end with the tofu to add some additional color, flavor and texture. Hope you enjoy this dish as much as I do!

DIRECTIONS

Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add tofu and cook until golden brown on all sides, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes.
Remove tofu from skillet with slotted spoon and set aside.
Add remaining 1 tbsp oil to skillet and cook onion until softened, about 5 minutes.
Next, add sliced mushrooms and cook until they begin to release their juices, about 1-2 minutes.
Stir in paprika and flour and coat onions and mushroom.
Be sure to cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly, in order to remove the raw taste from the flour.
Add tomato paste and wine and stir until paprika and flour are well blended into the liquid.
Add vegetable stock (or water depending on your choice) and bring entire mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, add salt and pepper to taste, and simmer for about 20 minutes.
Remove from the heat and whisk in sour cream.
Be sure its blended well.
Add tofu back to skillet and simmer for about 5 more minutes over low heat until heated through.
Serve over hot noodles, and top with additional sour cream if desired.
