Its timeless appeal bridges tradition and modern tastes.
Beef stroganoff pasta traces its roots to 19th-century Russia, where beef stroganoff was first created for the aristocratic Stroganov family. The dish evolved as it spread across Europe and the Americas, eventually inspiring versions using pasta instead of traditional rice or potatoes.
To prepare beef stroganoff pasta, beef strips or ground meat are sautéed with onions and mushrooms, then enveloped in a creamy sauce made from sour cream, broth, and a touch of mustard. This savory mixture is tossed with freshly cooked noodles, creating a harmonious blend of textures and flavors.

Beef Stroganoff
Ingredients
- For the Beef Stroganoff:
- 1 lb top sirloin steak, thinly sliced into strips
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 lb brown mushrooms, thickly sliced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth
- 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper To Serve:
- 1 Tbsp green onion or parsley, to garnish
- 8-12 oz egg noodles, optional, to serve
Directions
- Place a large deep pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 2 Tbsp oil and once the oil is very hot, add the thinly sliced beef strips in a single layer, cooking for 1 minute per side without stirring. Cook until just browned and no longer red. Sear the beef in 2 batches so you don’t overcrowd the pan. Remove the beef to a plate and cover to keep warm.
- Add 2 Tbsp butter, chopped onion, and sliced mushrooms to the pan. Sauté for 6-8 minutes or until liquid has evaporated and the onions and mushrooms are soft and lightly browned.
- Add 1 minced garlic clove and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add 1 Tbsp flour and sauté for another minute, stirring constantly.
- Pour in 1 cup of beef broth, scraping any bits from the bottom of the pan, then add 3/4 cup whipping cream and simmer for 1 to 2 minutes or until slightly thickened.
- Stir a few tablespoons of the hot sauce into the 1/4 cup of sour cream to temper it (this prevents the sour cream from curdling), then add the tempered sour cream back to the pan while stirring constantly.
- Stir in 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 tsp dijon mustard, and season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper, or season to taste. Continue simmering until the sauce is creamy.
- Add the beef with any accumulated juices back to the pan and bring just to a simmer or until the beef is heated through. Garnish with green onion or parsley and serve immediately over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice.
