Old Fashioned Beef Stroganoff
Description
Old Fashioned Beef Stroganoff uses flour-dusted sirloin steak slices sautéed with onions and mushrooms until tender. The beef is browned in butter to develop flavor, then combined with sautéed vegetables, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. The sauce thickens slightly before sour cream and Dijon mustard are stirred in to create a creamy, tangy finish.
The stroganoff is served hot over cooked egg noodles, but it also pairs well with mashed potatoes or rice for varied textures. The dish balances the richness of the cream and butter with the umami of mushrooms and Worcestershire sauce, providing a classic comfort food profile.
Good quality cuts of beef with marbling improve tenderness and flavor. Alternatives like ground beef can be used with minor adjustments. For lighter options, substitute noodles with zucchini noodles or mashed cauliflower.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 pounds beef sirloin steak sliced into thin strips
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 pound egg noodles
- 1 medium white onion sliced
- 8 ounces mushroom sliced
- 1/4 cup butter salted
- 3 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Slice the sirloin against the grain and into thin strips. Dust with the flour to coat. Set aside.
- Cook the egg noodles according to package directions. Drain well and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and mushrooms. Sauté until tender, about 7 minutes, then remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Without cleaning the skillet, add the butter and let it melt over medium-high heat. Add the steak slices and cook until browned, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Return the onions and mushrooms to the skillet. Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer until thickened, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the sour cream and Dijon and stir until incorporated. Add the cooked egg noodles, stir to combine, and then season to taste with salt and black pepper. Serve hot over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or cooked rice.
Notes
- Select well-marbled cuts such as boneless ribeye or beef tenderloin for improved flavor and tenderness.
- Ground beef can replace steak; brown thoroughly and cook flour for 2 minutes before adding other ingredients.
- Serve stroganoff over egg noodles, pasta, rice, or try zucchini noodles or mashed cauliflower for a lighter choice.
