Instructions
- Add the oil to a large pan or pot over medium-high heat.
- Once it begins to smoke lightly, sear the beef until lightly browned, which takes about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Set aside on a plate.
- Add the butter to the pan and cook the onions and mushrooms until caramelized, which takes about 8-10 minutes.
- Add the garlic and saute for 1 to 2 minutes before putting the beef back in the pan.
- Deglaze with brandy and cook until it’s almost gone. This takes about 2 to 3 minutes for it to be fully absorbed.
- Pour in the beef stock, add in the bay leaves and mustard, and cook on medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes or until the liquid is reduced by 1/3.
- Finishby whisking in the sour cream, salt, pepper, and parsley.
- Toss with noodles and garnish with extra parsley.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: This is meant to be eaten as soon as it's finished cooking.
- How to Store: Cover it and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. It will freeze covered in plastic for up to 2 months. Thaw for 1 day in the refrigerator before reheating.
- How to Reheat: Add the desired amount to a medium-sized pot with a bit of beef stock and cook over low heat until hot.
- In my opinion, adding caramelized mushrooms and onions elevates the recipe, bringing out a more delicious umami flavor in addition to only having meat in it.
- Other cuts used are bottom round or chuck roast, which would be better in a crockpot stroganoff so that it could cook for longer periods to help tenderize.
- Adding the beef, mushrooms, onions, and garlic helps to flavor the sauce even more.
- The pan or pot must be large to help caramelize all the different ingredients, requiring a lot of surface area.
- Making this in the slow cooker is a great option if you don’t have time to stand in front of the cooktop, plus the meat is really tender.
