Ingredients

• 500 grams Beef sirloin
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 1 clove Garlic clove, minced
• 200 grams Cremini or white mushrooms, sliced
• 250 milliliters Beef stock or broth
• 150 grams Sour cream
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
• 400 grams Wide egg noodles or white rice (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1/2 inch wide and 2 inches long. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Dredge the beef strips lightly in the all-purpose flour, shaking off excess flour.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the beef strips and sear for 1-2 minutes on each side until browned. Remove from the skillet and repeat with the remaining beef strips, adding more oil if needed. Set the seared beef aside.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium and melt the unsalted butter in the same skillet. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 3-5 minutes until soft and translucent.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and their liquid has evaporated.

Step 6

Pour the beef stock into the skillet and bring it to a simmer. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet to enrich the sauce.

Step 7

Stir in the sour cream, Dijon mustard, and paprika. Mix until smooth, ensuring the sauce is well combined.

Step 8

Return the seared beef strips to the skillet and stir through the sauce. Reduce the heat to low and allow the Stroganoff to simmer for 10 minutes, letting the flavors blend.

Step 9

While the Stroganoff simmers, cook the egg noodles or rice according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 10

Taste the Stroganoff sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 11

Serve the Russian Stroganoff over the cooked egg noodles or rice. Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!
