Rustic Beef Stroganoff with Egg Noodles

Here’s a recipe for Rustic Beef Stroganoff with Egg Noodles. This classic comfort dish combines tender beef, creamy mushroom sauce, and hearty egg noodles.

Ingredients

For the Beef Stroganoff:

• 1 1/2 lbs beef sirloin or tenderloin, thinly sliced into strips
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 10 oz mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tbsp flour
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped (or 1 tsp dried thyme)
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

For the Egg Noodles:

• 12 oz egg noodles
• Salt, for boiling water
• 1 tbsp butter

Instructions

1. Prepare the Beef:
   • Season the beef strips with salt and pepper.
   • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
   • Add the beef strips in batches, searing until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.
2. Cook the Onions and Mushrooms:
   • In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil.
   • Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
   • Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms are tender and the onions are golden brown.
3. Make the Sauce:
   • Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for about 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
   • Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps.
   • Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
   • Stir in the sour cream, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme. Mix well.
4. Combine Beef and Sauce:
   • Return the beef strips to the skillet, along with any accumulated juices.
   • Simmer on low heat until the beef is heated through and the sauce is creamy and well combined. Do not boil, as this can cause the sour cream to curdle.
   • Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Cook the Egg Noodles:
   • While the stroganoff is simmering, cook the egg noodles according to package instructions in salted boiling water.
   • Drain and toss with a tablespoon of butter.
6. Serve:
   • Place the egg noodles on a plate or in a bowl.
   • Spoon the beef stroganoff over the noodles.
   • Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
