Typically for Christmas Eve we have either Fish Pie or a traditional English curry, both of which I have already cooked from the Master Chef Cookbook! Beef Stroganoff was the closest thing I could have made unless I wanted to cook an Aubergine and Massaman (vegetable) curry, sorry Aunty Katy maybe next year! Christmas Eve was no different from the rest of this part of the holiday in Margaret River, all I wanted to do was relax in the sun. So instead of cooking dinner when I got home later in the day, I browned the meat before we went to the River Mouth so that when I got home I had less to do. The instructions say that I need to take care not to overcook the strips of steak so they remain tender and juicy. The result was a creamy, satisfying dish that had a hint of spice that went well with rice and broccoli. The whole dish was prepared and eaten just in time for Father Christmas to visit 5 highly excited boys, 1 mildly excited older girl (me) and 1 slightly confused dog!
