Ingredients

• 1 pound beef sirloin, sliced into thin strips
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 cup sour cream
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
• 12 ounces egg noodles (or your choice of base)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Cook the noodles by boiling water in a large pot. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Step 2: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef strips and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove the beef and set aside.
3. Step 3: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the chopped onion for 2-3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Step 4: Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes, allowing them to soften and brown.
5. Step 5: Sprinkle the flour over the mixture. Stir well to coat and cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
6. Step 6: Gradually pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce while stirring continuously until the sauce begins to thicken.
7. Step 7: Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream until fully combined. Cook for an additional 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Step 8: Return the cooked beef to the skillet, stirring to coat it with the sauce. Heat through for a couple more minutes.
9. Step 9: Serve the beef stroganoff over the cooked noodles or separately, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.

Tips & Variations

• For deeper flavor, use a mix of mushrooms like cremini and shiitake.
• Substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a lighter option, but add it off the heat to prevent curdling.
• Add a splash of white wine when cooking the mushrooms for extra complexity.
• Use wide egg noodles or mashed potatoes as your base for a different texture.

Storage

Store leftover beef stroganoff in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat to preserve the creamy texture, adding a splash of broth if needed to loosen the sauce.

FAQs

Can I use a different cut of beef?

Yes, tender cuts like ribeye or tenderloin work well. Avoid tougher cuts unless thinly sliced and cooked quickly to keep the beef tender.

Is it possible to freeze beef stroganoff?

While you can freeze it, the sour cream sauce may separate upon thawing. For best results, freeze the beef and mushrooms separately and add sour cream when reheating.

Beef and Sauce

• 1 pound beef sirloin, sliced into thin strips
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 cup sour cream
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Base

• 12 ounces egg noodles (or your choice of base)

Instructions

1. Cook the Noodles: Begin by boiling water in a large pot. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside to keep warm.
2. Sear the Beef: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef strips and cook for about 3-4 minutes until nicely browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
3. Sauté Onions and Garlic: In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Sauté the finely chopped onion for 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant, taking care not to burn the garlic.
4. Add the Mushrooms: Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes, until they release their moisture and turn golden brown, enhancing their flavor.
5. Thicken with Flour: Sprinkle the all-purpose flour evenly over the mushroom mixture and stir well, coating all ingredients. Cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste and to start thickening the sauce.
6. Add Broth and Worcestershire Sauce: Gradually pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Simmer the sauce until it thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon.
7. Incorporate the Sour Cream: Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream carefully, ensuring it blends smoothly without curdling. Cook for another 2 minutes to warm through. Season the sauce with salt and pepper according to your taste.
8. Return the Beef: Add the cooked beef strips back into the skillet with the sauce. Stir gently to coat the beef well and heat through for an additional two minutes to meld the flavors.
9. Serve Immediately: Plate the cooked egg noodles and spoon the beef stroganoff sauce over them or serve the sauce alongside the noodles. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a bright, fresh finish.

Notes

• For a richer flavor, use a combination of cremini and white mushrooms.
• If preferred, substitute sour cream with crème fraîche for a tangier taste.
• Ensure beef strips are sliced thinly and uniformly for even cooking.
• Do not boil the sour cream mixture once added to avoid curdling.
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
