Scale
Main Protein:
- 1 pound (454 grams) ground beef
Vegetables:
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cups (473 milliliters) mushrooms, sliced
Seasoning and Thickeners:
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
Liquid Ingredients:
- 2 cups (473 milliliters) beef broth
- 1 cup (237 milliliters) sour cream
Cooking Fat:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
Pasta:
- 12 ounces (340 grams) egg noodles, cooked
Instructions
- Warm a spacious skillet over medium temperature, introducing olive oil for a smooth sauté.
- Introduce ground beef to the pan, browning thoroughly and eliminating any surplus fat through careful draining.
- Incorporate diced onions and sliced mushrooms, allowing them to soften and release their aromatic essence.
- Dust the mixture with flour and paprika, gently toasting for approximately 2 minutes to develop rich, complex flavors.
- Pour beef broth gradually while continuously whisking, preventing potential lumpy textures and creating a smooth, velvety sauce.
- Allow the sauce to simmer and gradually thicken, developing an intense, robust consistency.
- Reduce heat to minimal setting and gently fold in sour cream, warming the mixture without allowing it to boil and potentially separate.
- Enhance with subtle salt and pepper seasoning, adjusting to personal taste preferences.
- Transfer the luscious stroganoff over prepared egg noodles, creating a comforting and elegant main course.
- Optional: Sprinkle fresh parsley as a vibrant, verdant garnish to elevate the dish’s visual appeal and add a fresh herbal note.
Notes
- Drain beef thoroughly to prevent a greasy dish and ensure a crisp, clean flavor.
- Use full-fat sour cream for a richer, creamier texture that enhances the overall taste profile.
- Slice mushrooms uniformly to guarantee even cooking and consistent texture throughout the stroganoff.
- Opt for low-sodium beef broth to control salt levels and adjust seasoning according to personal preference.
