Get an easy, delicious and nutritious recipe for beef stroganoff with mushrooms from HMSA.
Whether you’re dining alone or with someone else, make this simple, quick beef stroganoff to nourish body and mind. If it’s just you, there’ll be enough leftovers for a lunch or two. Or, pack a serving, take it to work and give it to a coworker. They’ll love you for it.
Some tips before you get cooking:
- Slice beef into strips. Not too long and not too skinny.
- I don’t like sliced mushrooms in this dish, so I rough-chop them. It’s a whole lot quicker than slicing.
- Working in two batches, brown the meat quickly. I mean, really quickly. Takes about one or two minutes.
- The meat is done and waiting on the sidelines. Sautee mushrooms and onions in the same skillet.
- Add beef broth and bring to a boil. When it boils, add flour and water mixture. Stir constantly until thickened.
- Take skillet off the heat to stir in sour cream and mustard. The relatively small amount of sour cream makes this stroganoff a little indulgent without going overboard.
- Serve with egg noodles. If you live in Hawaii, you might want it with rice.
This is one serving. Just for you, because you love you. Have a happy Valentine’s Day!
