A quick and easy creamy ground beef stroganoff served over tender egg noodles, perfect for cozy weeknight dinners with simple pantry ingredients.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450g) ground beef (80/20)
  • 8 ounces (225g) egg noodles
  • 8 ounces (225g) cremini or white mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup (240ml) beef broth, preferably low sodium
  • 1/2 cup (120g) sour cream, full fat
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, a small handful chopped for garnish

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package instructions, usually 6-8 minutes, until al dente. Drain well and set aside.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer beef to a plate, leaving drippings in the pan.
  3. Reduce heat to medium. Add butter to the skillet. Once melted, add chopped onion and sliced mushrooms. Cook until softened and browned, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Sprinkle flour evenly over vegetables and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to cook off raw flour taste.
  5. Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring to avoid lumps. Add Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard if using. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook until sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Return browned beef to the skillet and stir to coat in the sauce. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  7. Serve the creamy ground beef stroganoff over cooked egg noodles. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.

Notes

Do not boil the sauce after adding sour cream to prevent curdling; warm gently off heat. If sauce is too thick, add a splash of broth or water to loosen. Brown beef in batches if needed to avoid steaming. Fresh mushrooms add best flavor and texture.
