Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 8 oz fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp oil (vegetable or olive oil)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 12 oz egg noodles or pasta of choice

Instructions

  1. Brown the Ground Beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, add oil or butter, then cook the ground beef until browned and crumbly. Remove beef and set aside.
  2. Sauté Onions, Garlic, and Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add butter and cook chopped onions, garlic, and mushrooms until soft and caramelized.
  3. Make the Sauce: Sprinkle flour over the vegetable mixture and stir to coat. Slowly add beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps, then simmer until sauce thickens slightly.
  4. Combine Beef and Sour Cream: Return browned beef to the skillet, reduce heat to low, and gently mix in sour cream until a creamy, smooth sauce forms without curdling.
  5. Cook the Noodles: Meanwhile, cook egg noodles or your chosen pasta according to package directions. Drain and either add to the skillet or serve alongside the stroganoff.

Notes

  • Don’t rush the browning step to develop deeper flavor and reduce excess moisture.
  • Use fresh mushrooms for the best texture and umami taste.
  • Temper sour cream by adding a few spoonfuls of hot sauce into it before mixing to avoid curdling.
  • Cook noodles al dente so they hold texture when combined with the sauce.
  • Adjust seasoning after adding sour cream for perfect balance.
