Ingredients
  

For the Beef Stroganoff
  • 1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced Choose a tender cut of meat for best results.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced Feel free to mix different types of mushrooms.
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup sour cream Can substitute with Greek yogurt.
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 12 ounces egg noodles Cook according to the package instructions.
  • to taste Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

Cooking the Egg Noodles
  1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Preparing the Beef
  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the beef slices and sear them until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.
Sautéing the Vegetables
  1. In the same skillet, add onions and cook for about 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, continuing to sauté for another 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.
Making the Sauce
  1. Sprinkle the flour over the onion and mushroom mixture, stirring to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste. Add in the Dijon mustard, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir until smooth and bring to a gentle simmer.
Combining Ingredients
  1. Once the sauce thickens, return the browned beef to the skillet. Stir in the sour cream and mix until everything is well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serving
  1. Toss the cooked egg noodles with the beef stroganoff sauce until evenly coated. Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.

Notes

For perfect Beef Stroganoff, use tender cuts of beef and avoid overcrowding the pan during cooking. The dish can be made ahead of time and gently reheated.
