Description

A classic ground beef stroganoff recipe that blends tender beef and egg noodles in a rich, creamy sauce, ready in just 30 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 ounces egg noodles
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ¼ cup butter
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 ¼ cup milk
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to the package directions. Once done, set them aside.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add ground beef. Cook while breaking it up with a spoon until browned, approximately 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat and transfer beef to a plate.
  3. In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add flour, whisking constantly for about 2 minutes until it forms a roux.
  4. Gradually whisk in the beef broth, ensuring no lumps form. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Slowly mix in the milk, stirring over medium heat until the sauce thickens again, around 5-7 minutes. It should be creamy and smooth.
  6. Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper evenly.
  7. Reduce heat to low. Add the cooked egg noodles and browned beef, mixing well until everything is heated through.
  8. Gently stir in the sour cream, blending it into the sauce for a rich, tangy finish.
  9. Serve hot, enjoying it freshly made, possibly with a side of your favorite vegetables or garlic toast.

Notes

For added flavor, consider incorporating sautéed mushrooms or a splash of Worcestershire sauce. Prepping all ingredients beforehand speeds up the cooking process.
