Beef stroganoff is a well-known Russian dish that contains beef in a creamy sauce. My mom loved her childhood memories of this dish, and I am still shocked; I don’t remember having this often. I could eat this just straight from the pan, but typically this meal is served with mushrooms and egg noodles.

Ingredients

• Lean Ground Beef
• Worcestershire sauce
• Beef broth
• Butter
• White button mushrooms
• Yellow onion
• Garlic
• Salt
• Black pepper
• Sour cream
• Cream of mushroom soup
• Egg noodles

How to Make Beef Stroganoff

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook egg noodles until tender yet firm to the bite, 6-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Then add mushrooms, onions, and garlic. Cook everything in the butter for 5 to 7 minutes stirring occasionally, until tender. Remove from skillet to small bowl; set aside.

Cook the beef on medium-high heat for 5 to 7 minutes until it is no longer pink, stirring occasionally. Drain it and then stir in 1 cup of broth, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Let everything come to a boil.

Add sour cream and cream of mushroom soup, and stir to combine.

Add the mushroom mixture to the pan and simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan.

Now you can add your cooked noodles or serve the sauce over the noodles. Your choice; our preference is to mix in the noodles. Garnish with parsley.

How to keep leftovers

You can store your leftover beef stroganoff in the fridge for up to four days. To reheat it, put it in the microwave or on the stove.

What to Serve With Beef Stroganoff

This ground beef stroganoff is heartier than most dishes, so you may not even need a side dish. A salad would be light and refreshing, complementing the meal perfectly.

Although if you’re looking for something different, feel free to serve the ground beef and sauce mixture over white rice or mashed potatoes instead of egg noodles.

Rolls are always great, as you can wipe up any extra sauce.
