Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 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 Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ cup Sour Cream

Instructions

  1. Cook the Noodles: Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to the package directions. Once cooked, drain and set aside to use later.
  2. Brown the Beef: While the noodles cook, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until no pink remains and the beef is fully browned, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat and transfer the beef to a plate. Set aside.
  3. Make the Roux: In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the flour and whisk continuously for about 2 minutes until the mixture is bubbly and golden, forming the roux.
  4. Add Beef Broth: Gradually pour the beef broth into the roux while whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Continue whisking until the sauce begins to thicken, approximately 3-4 minutes.
  5. Incorporate Milk: Slowly whisk in the milk, stirring continuously over medium heat until the sauce is smooth and thickened, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Season the Sauce: Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt, ensuring the spices are evenly incorporated throughout the sauce.
  7. Combine Noodles and Beef: Reduce heat to low and add the cooked egg noodles and browned ground beef back into the skillet. Stir gently to combine and heat through evenly.
  8. Add Sour Cream: Carefully fold in the sour cream until fully incorporated into the sauce, giving the stroganoff a creamy and tangy finish.
  9. Serve: Serve the stroganoff hot, with your choice of side such as steamed vegetables or garlic toast for a hearty and balanced meal.

Notes

  • Drain excess fat from the ground beef to keep the sauce from becoming greasy.
  • Use whole milk for a richer sauce; low-fat milk can be substituted to reduce calories.
  • Sour cream adds tanginess; you can substitute it with Greek yogurt for a healthier alternative.
  • Egg noodles can be replaced with gluten-free pasta if needed.
  • Adjust seasonings to taste, adding more salt or pepper depending on preference.
  • For added freshness, garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
