Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup diced yellow onion,
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic ((about 1-2 cloves))
  • 3 Tablespoons salted butter
  • 3 Tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 10.5 ounce can cream of mushroom soup
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • cooked egg noodles ((for serving, optional))

Instruction:

  1. In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown 1 pound ground beef along with 1/2 cup diced yellow onion, and 1 teaspoon minced garlic until thoroughly cooked and crumbled.
  2. Drain ground beef to remove excess grease from pan. Put pan back on stove over medium heat (don’t add the ground beef back in yet.)
  3. Add 3 Tablespoons salted butter and allow it to melt. Then add 3 Tablespoons all purpose flour to the pan, whisk and let it absorb butter.
  4. Add 1 1/2 cups beef broth and whisk vigorously to remove any lumps, turning the heat up to high, bringing it to a boil for 2-3 minutes until you see it thicken slightly.
  5. Bring temperature down to medium and whisk in 1 cup sour cream and 10.5 ounce can cream of mushroom soup. Stir until mixture is thoroughly incorporated.
  6. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Keep tasting mixture until it is seasoned the way you like. If it gets too thick, just add a tad more beef broth.
  7. Add ground beef back to mixture until reheated. Serve over cooked egg noodles and enjoy!

FAQ

What is the sauce in beef stroganoff made of?

What is stroganoff sauce made of? Stroganoff sauce is a sour cream gravy made with beef broth that’s thickened with flour. It’s flavoured with mustard and has mushrooms in it. I love the pale brown creamy colour against the deep golden brown seared beef!

What can I use in stroganoff instead of sour cream?

Two of the best substitutes for sour cream in beef stroganoff are: Greek yogurt and cream cheese. What is this? This recipe uses 1/2 cup of full-fat Greek yogurt in place of sour cream. Greek yogurt has the slight acidic “tang” that is closest to the flavor of sour cream.

What Are Some Stir-Ins To Make Hamburger Helper Beef Stroganoff Taste Better? Some tasty ingredients to add to beef stroganoff would be sliced mushrooms (canned or fresh), minced garlic, white onion, fresh or dried chives (or your favorite herbs like thyme, tarragon, or sage), or shredded cheese!

Why does my beef stroganoff taste sour?

You made a dish too sour

Sourness comes from acidic ingredients (including tomatoes, wine and vinegar). If your dish tastes too sour try to add sweetness—think sugar, honey (it’s healthy!), cream or even caramelized onions. You can also dilute the dish (same as you would with a dish with too much salt).
