This is a new favorite for my family! So easy to throw together and make on a busy weeknight. Plus the leftovers that remain are great, too. I’ve always made it without the white wine and it’s still super delicious.
That’s great, Jenna! Thank you for sharing with us!
First of all,stroganoff is the one dish I make for my birthday every year and then I go all out, get the good beef, chop it up and brown it, two or three kinds of mushrooms and cook it like my grandmother and mom did in a slow oven for hours until it was tender and the sour cream sauce was thick and caramelized on top. My mother grew up in Berlin. My grandfather was a pastor who was part of an underground railway as a safe house for Soviet dissidents,they got that recipe from an old russian who had escaped. Long story short it’s extra yummy but takes a long time,which is fine for a day off. I have made modified quick versions on the weeknight with ground beef,but they lack that depth of flavor,I never thought about using flour and wine,and cooking the noodles in the sauce, the one thing I won’t change is we use soy sauce instead of Worcestershire, ill give this one ago.
I HATE to cook and I have no ingredients except for noodles and ground turkey. It there any shortcut for making this with fewer ingredients?
Unfortunately, without having tried this shortcut myself, I cannot answer with certainty. But if you get a chance to try it, please let me know how it turns out! 🙂
Delicious! Substituted Steak tips from Butchebox which I dredged in the 3 tablespoons of flour. This recipe has been added to my husband’s favorites list. Thank you for making it one pot too.
Great idea, Julie! So happy you liked this one! 🙂
Only thing I will do different next time is to add more noodles. Great flavor though.
THIS LOOKS SO AMAZING!!! What camera lens do you use for these photos? I am always swooning over your pics 🙂
Aw, thanks! I use a macro lens. 🙂
Delicious! Flavorful, quick and easy, abindat, and affordable. One pot totally wotked. Thank you!
Sorry below. Meant “abundant,” Recipe made full portions of a tasty, hearty meal!
How would you change this up for people who do not eat red meat or pork?
You can try to substitute ground chicken or additional mushrooms for the ground beef.
Awesome!! Made it tonight exactly according to recipe. My family loved it. We will definitely be making it again soon. Thank you.
You are so welcome, Deana!
My husband doesn’t like mushrooms. Any suggestions for a replacement?
What a great idea! But unfortunately, without having tried this myself, I cannot answer with certainty. But if you get a chance to try it, please let me know how it turns out! 🙂
My husband loves mushrooms but I hate them, so I just make it without mushrooms… and if I am feeling nice, I will sauté him some ‘shrooms with the same flavor profile of the dish and toss them on top of his bowl.
I would dice them up super small or maybe use a mini food processor to make them super small. I’ve done this with my husband who hates mushrooms and he never knows
I made this the other night and it was so delicious and flavorful! The only change I made was keeping the noodles separate as I prefer it that way. I lessened the beef broth by a cup so the sauce wasnt too liquidy. (is that a word?) However, this is definitely a keeper. I have shared with a co worker who also loved it. thanks Chungah for another winning recipe!
Thanks so much for sharing with us!
I don’t have beef stock or wine unfortunately. If I used water, would it still taste okay?
Yes, that should still work just fine, Myra. 🙂
I made this for dinner last night and it was a big hit from the whole family. It’s super easy to make and definitely a meal I will have in the rotation that can be easily made during the work week.
Happy to hear you enjoyed it, Jeremy!
Can this be made without the wine? And what type of dry white wine do you recommend?
You can substitute additional beef stock. For the wine, you can use Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc.
I made this last night for my family of 5. I doubled the recipe but didn’t need quite that much. I just love food a lot. My 11 year old made it with me and this was a great recipe for helping kids learn how to cook.
My 6 and 9 year old ate one helping with zero complaints over the new food. My 11 year old had 3 helpings as did my husband and I. sooooo good.
Thanks. I’m definitely putting this on rotation.
Awesome, Gretchen! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Gretchen – thank you. That is a review. It lets me know that you actually made the dish and what you thought of it. Very helpful and I am grateful. I am so tired of reading comments from people who say” This looks awesome and super yummy ….can’t wait to make it!” Not a review and really sad that people don’t understand the concept of a factual review. I am making the dish tonight because of your specific review and helpful comments!
it looks delicious and easy to understand i will surely make it and will let you know about taste
Just made this for my stroganoff loving boyfriend and he liked it! His only complaint was the sauce was a bit thin, and it had a little too much worshcestire sauce. It was also way too much food for us and our almost 2 year old so we will have too many leftovers for sure. Next time i’ll be halving the recipe, adding less beef broth and probably only 1tbsp of worshcestire, if that.
I’d like to double this…does the broth need to be doubled? Seems like it might get soupy. Is there a tip for knowing how much liquid the pasta will absorb and what’s likely leftover to make up the sauce?
I have found that one pot recipes are very finicky when doubling so if you require additional servings, I recommend making this twice – sorry!
Do you think this can be made ahead of time, just before the adding noodles step?
What a great idea! But unfortunately, without having tried this myself, I cannot answer with certainty. But if you get a chance to try it, please let me know how it turns out! 🙂
Made this last night, and it was so good! Took me back to my childhood. 🙂
We love that!
Mmmmm love me a good stroganoff!! Don’t know if it’s usually made with pasta but I would love to try it that way! (:
Hi, this looks really good! I’m a beginner cook. Do I need to drain the ground beef or just buy extra lean ground beef? Thanks!
Hi Courtney, you don’t have to drain it. You can use an extra lean beef, but just lean beef in general is enough.
I love your recipes! I’m doing the keto diet is there any way this would work with half the zoodles half pasta so I could actually eat it?
I’m sure you can, but since we haven’t tried that ourselves, we cannot answer with certainty. Zoodles have a high water content, so that is something to keep in mind. I recommend trying it and improvising as you go. I’m sorry I can’t be more helpful. As always, please use your best judgement when making modifications and substitutions.
I’m a pretty much from scratch (due to too many food additive sensitivities) home cook. My friend have me this recipe. And it was INSANELY good! My hub & I both loved it! Only thing I did different was 8 oz of mushrooms (the size pack and I’m not a mushroom eater, yes I picked them out ) and browned the meat, then drained the fat, and added back after sautéing the mushrooms and onions. So quick and easy. I was actually able to set up my “Mise en place” as I cooked. Great recipe!
Awesome, Kat! We love hearing that! 🙂
Even when im not looking for DD recipe, I land here! Much appreciation for the well balanced flavors! I am GF so i added a bit of cornstarch rather than flour, and served over mashed potatoes. With a side of maple bacon brussel sprouts, it was a devine meal! A three teen thumbs up 🙂
We love hearing that! Thanks for sharing, Joy!
I’ve made keto stroganoff before. Lessen your liquid content for sure! No wine (full of carbs) Worshecire Also has about 3grams of net carbs per tbsp. No flour either, but you can use xanthum gum as a thickening agent. Also use bone broth, not beef. And not sure how strict keto you are, but you actually aren’t supposed to eat any amount of noodles on it, no matter how little amount it is. 100% Zoodles are definitely the way to go for any keto dish. So basically you would have to make a completely different recipe than this. You might be better off googling keto stroganoff
