Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) beef sirloin or tenderloin, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces (225g) cremini or white mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup (240ml) beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup (240ml) sour cream, full-fat or light
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish (optional)
  • 12 ounces (340g) wide egg noodles
  • Salt, for pasta water

Instructions

  1. Prep the Ingredients (10 minutes): Slice the beef thinly against the grain into bite-sized strips. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic. Clean and slice the mushrooms evenly.
  2. Cook the Egg Noodles (8-10 minutes): Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook until al dente, about 7-9 minutes. Drain and set aside. Toss with a little butter or oil to prevent sticking if desired.
  3. Sauté the Beef (5-7 minutes): Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef strips in a single layer and cook until browned on all sides but still slightly pink inside, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove beef and set aside.
  4. Cook the Vegetables (5 minutes): Lower heat to medium. Add remaining butter to skillet. Cook onions until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds. Add mushrooms and cook until golden and moisture evaporates, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Make the Sauce (10 minutes): Pour in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Stir and simmer gently for about 5 minutes to reduce and thicken slightly.
  6. Finish the Stroganoff (2-3 minutes): Return beef and juices to skillet. Remove pan from heat and stir in sour cream until smooth. Do not boil after adding sour cream. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve: Spoon stroganoff over warm egg noodles and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

Notes

Slice beef thinly against the grain for tenderness. Avoid overcrowding the pan when browning beef to get a good sear. Remove pan from heat before adding sour cream to prevent curdling. If sauce is too thick, add a splash of beef broth or water to loosen. Multitask by cooking noodles while preparing sauce. Use pasta water sparingly to thin sauce and add starch for velvety texture.
