Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 pound (454 grams) ground beef
  • 12 ounces (340 grams) egg noodles, cooked
  • 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) sour cream

Vegetables and Aromatics:

  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces (227 grams) mushrooms, sliced

Liquids, Seasonings, and Additional Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups (480 milliliters) beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Sear ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, breaking it into crumbles until fully browned. Drain excess fat and transfer beef to a separate plate.
  2. In the same skillet, sauté diced onions, minced garlic, and sliced mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until vegetables become tender and slightly translucent.
  3. Dust the vegetable mixture with flour, stirring thoroughly to create a uniform coating. Gradually pour beef broth while continuously whisking to prevent lumps from forming.
  4. Incorporate Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper into the liquid. Allow the sauce to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until it thickens and develops a rich consistency.
  5. Reintroduce the cooked ground beef into the skillet, gently folding it into the sauce to ensure even distribution of flavors.
  6. Remove skillet from heat and fold in sour cream until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy, creating a luxurious texture.
  7. Plate the beef stroganoff over warm egg noodles, garnishing with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant touch and added freshness.

Notes

  • Drain beef thoroughly to prevent a greasy dish and ensure a perfect sauce consistency.
  • Use high-quality mushrooms like cremini or shiitake for deeper, richer flavor profiles.
  • Opt for full-fat sour cream to create a luxuriously smooth and creamy texture.
  • Experiment with gluten-free options by substituting flour with cornstarch or using gluten-free noodles for dietary restrictions.
