Ingredients
Scale
Beef Mixture
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 medium onion, chopped
Sauce
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
Serving
- 8 ounces egg noodles
Instructions
- Cook the beef and vegetables: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain excess fat if necessary. Add the chopped onion and sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Prepare the sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the beef mixture and stir well to combine, cooking for 1 minute to eliminate the raw taste of the flour. Gradually add the beef broth while stirring, bringing the mixture to a simmer until it thickens slightly.
- Add sour cream: Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream, mixing thoroughly to create a creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste and heat through without boiling to prevent curdling.
- Cook the noodles: Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 7-9 minutes. Drain well.
- Serve: Spoon the beef stroganoff mixture over the cooked egg noodles and serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use a combination of cremini and white mushrooms.
- To keep the sauce smooth, avoid boiling after adding sour cream.
- Egg noodles can be substituted with wide pasta or rice if preferred.
- This dish can be made ahead; store beef mixture and noodles separately and reheat gently before serving.
