Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 8 to 10 ounces egg noodles
Optional garnishes:

Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Noodles
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Step 2: Brown the Ground Beef
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil or butter, then add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Once browned, remove excess grease if needed.
Step 3: Build the Flavor
- Add chopped onion to the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Stir in mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
Step 4: Make the Sauce
- Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir well. Cook for about 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
- Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring. Add Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, paprika, and more black pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer.
- Let the sauce cook for 5 to 7 minutes until slightly thickened.
Step 5: Finish With Sour Cream
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in sour cream gently until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Step 6: Serve
- Serve the stroganoff over warm egg noodles. Garnish with parsley if you like.
