Gravy: Onion soup mix, beef base, and sour cream combine to produce a rich and creamy sauce that envelops the meat and noodles in savory flavor.
Mushrooms: Sautéed button or Cremini mushrooms will provide more savory flavor to this meaty dish. To unlock the most flavor, sauté them until they are dark brown and almost dry.

Tips & Tricks
- For a quicker fix, try making beef stroganoff in the Instant Pot.
- If using uncooked beef, freeze for 30-minutes to firm up. It will make it easier to cut thin slices.
- You can substitute onion dip for the onion soup and sour cream.
- If the gravy is too thin, create a new flour slurry and slowly stir it into the pan while it is bubbling. If you need to thin it, add heavy cream or milk.
How to Store Leftovers
- Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
- Reheat in a covered dish in the microwave, or the oven under a tight foil wrapping to prevent drying out. Add heavy cream or milk to loosen it up as necessary.
- Although freezing for up to 3 months is an option, the noodles and sour cream will lose their texture.

Beef Stroganoff
Equipment
Ingredients
- 12-16 ounces boneless beef sirloin steak or ribeye steak (cooked or uncooked)
- 6 ounces dry egg noodles or other pasta
- 8 ounces sour cream 1 tub
- 2 ½ Tablespoons onion soup mix or ½ packet
- 2 Tablespoons all purpose flour
- ½ cup water
- 2 teaspoons beef base
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 8 ounces mushrooms quartered (or cut in 6 if large), I use cremini
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 clove garlic, minced
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups frozen peas optional
Instructions
- If using cooked beef, slice thin against the grain. If using uncooked beef, freeze for 30 minutes for easy slicing (if time allows). Slice against the grain in thin slices.
- In a medium pot, boil water for egg noodles. Once boiling, cook egg noodles per package directions, until al dente.
- Meanwhile, whisk together sour cream, onion soup mix, and flour in a small bowl. Add water and beef base, stir, and set aside.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. If using uncooked beef, add half of beef to skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes and remove.
- Add mushrooms to skillet (and remaining uncooked beef if applicable) and cook for 5 minutes or until almost cooked.
- Add all beef, garlic powder, and pepper to skillet and cook for one minute before adding sour cream onion soup mixture to the skillet. Bring to a boil, and add peas (if using). Cook for 2-3 minutes until thickens and peas are hot.
- Add cooked egg noodles to skillet and stir. Ready to serve!
Notes
- Freeze uncooked beef (if using) for 30-minutes so that it is easier to slice thin.
- Use pre-made onion dip instead of sour cream and onion soup mix if needed.
- To thicken gravy, mix 1 Tablespoon flour with 2 Tablespoons water to create a slurry, and slowly stir it into the pan while it is bubbling.
- To thin gravy, add a bit of heavy cream or milk.
