Isn't it a Russian dish? I know fricassée de boeuf is French, but once you add onion and sour cream, you're in Russia baby.
Well, yes. And that was done by the french, who decided to "add a bit of russian flavour" to fricassée de boeuf, and thus create the first ever dish of beef stroganoff, by adding classic russian ingredients, and bring it closer to russian taste. And then russians adopted the dish, and called it their own.
