Description

A classic beef stroganoff recipe featuring tender strips of beef cooked in a creamy mushroom sauce, served over egg noodles. This comforting dish is perfect for a delicious weeknight dinner or a special occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) beef sirloin or tenderloin, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 8 oz (225g) white or cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (240ml) beef broth
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2/3 cup (160g) sour cream
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh chopped parsley, for garnish
  • 12 oz egg noodles, cooked

Instructions

  1. Sear the Beef: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season beef strips lightly with salt and pepper. Add half the beef and cook just until browned on both sides, about 1–2 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and repeat with remaining beef, adding extra oil if needed. Set all the beef aside.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook until golden and soft, about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and mushrooms, sautéing for 5-6 minutes until mushrooms are browned and tender.
  3. Create the Creamy Stroganoff Sauce: Sprinkle flour over the vegetables, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Gradually pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  4. Combine & Finish: Reduce heat to low. Return beef (and any collected juices) to the skillet. Stir in the sour cream until fully incorporated and the sauce is creamy. Warm through, but do not boil, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top and serve hot over noodles.

Notes

  • For extra tender beef, slice it thinly across the grain.
  • Do not let the sauce boil after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.
  • Greek yogurt can be substituted for sour cream for a tangier, lighter twist.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of liquid if the sauce thickens too much.
