Beef Stroganoff

  • 1 pound boneless beef sirloin steak (or 1 pound ground beef)
  • 8 ounce carton dairy sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 teaspoons instant beef bouillon granules (I omit these if I don’t have them on hand)
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 1/2 cups sliced mushrooms (or one small can)
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups hot cooked noodles (egg noodles taste best to me)

Instructions

  1. If using steak, trim and then partially freeze. Thinly slice across the grain into bite-size looking strips. Stir together sour cream, flour, water, bouillon, and pepper then set aside.
  2. If using steak, cook 1/2 in butter in a large skillet over high heat for 2 to 3 minutes (check for doneness to your preference). Remove from skillet. Add remaining meat, mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Cook at stir till meat reaches your preferred doneness. Drain off fat and return all meat and vegetables to skillet. If using ground beef, brown in a small sauce pan and set aside while you saute the veggies in a large skillet with butter until onions are soft. Once vegetables are tender add ground beef to skillet.
  3. Stir flour mixture into skillet. Cook and stir until thickened (most likely just before a boil) and reduce heat to low for one minute. Serve over noodles.
