Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 3 cups egg noodles (uncooked)
- 10.5 ounces (298 grams) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup sour cream
Seasonings and Aromatics:
- 1/2 cup minced onion
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon flour
Liquid:
- 3 cups beef broth
Instructions
- Prepare the Instant Pot by lightly coating the interior with cooking spray to prevent adhesion and simplify post-meal cleanup.
- Activate the sauté function and heat the pot. Introduce ground beef, diced onions, and minced garlic. Brown the meat thoroughly, fragmenting it with a utensil while the aromatics soften and release their fragrant essence.
- Dust the meat mixture with flour, stirring comprehensively to create a foundation for sauce thickening and ensure uniform coating.
- Pour beef broth and cream of mushroom soup into the pot. Season with salt and pepper, blending all components until they form a harmonious, savory mixture.
- Incorporate uncooked egg noodles, gently submerging them completely within the liquid to guarantee uniform cooking and maximum flavor absorption.
- Secure the lid and program the Instant Pot to high pressure for 8 minutes. After cooking completes, allow natural pressure release for 5 minutes, followed by a quick release to eliminate remaining steam.
- Unveil the lid and integrate sour cream, stirring until the sauce achieves a luxurious, velvety consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed for optimal flavor profile.
- Transfer the stroganoff into serving dishes. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives to enhance visual appeal and provide a fresh aromatic accent.
Notes
- Ensure your ground beef is lean to prevent excess grease pooling on top of the dish, which can make the stroganoff feel heavy.
- Use low-sodium beef broth to control salt levels, allowing you to season precisely without overwhelming the delicate flavors.
- For a gluten-free version, swap regular flour with cornstarch or a gluten-free blend, and use gluten-free egg noodles to accommodate dietary needs.
- Create a lighter variation by substituting Greek yogurt for sour cream, reducing calories while maintaining a creamy, tangy profile that complements the beef perfectly.
