Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 pounds (0.45 kilograms) ground beef
- 6 ounces (170 grams) egg noodles
Dairy and Thickening Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (57 grams) butter
- 1/4 cup (30 grams) flour
- 1 1/4 cup (296 milliliters) milk
Liquid and Seasoning Ingredients:
- 1 cup (237 milliliters) beef broth
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Prepare egg noodles in a pot of salted boiling water following package instructions. Drain and lightly coat with butter to prevent sticking.
- Heat skillet over medium temperature. Add ground beef and crumble while cooking until thoroughly browned, approximately 6-8 minutes. Carefully drain excess fat to avoid greasy texture.
- Using the same skillet, melt butter and incorporate flour. Continuously whisk for 2 minutes to create a smooth roux without lumps.
- Gradually introduce beef broth and milk into the roux, whisking consistently. Simmer until sauce reaches desired thickness, about 5-7 minutes. Adjust consistency by adding more liquid or extending cooking time.
- Incorporate garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt into the sauce. Reduce heat to low and fold in cooked noodles and browned beef, ensuring even distribution and thorough heating.
- Finish by stirring in sour cream until completely blended, creating a rich, creamy texture. Serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Avoid overcooking the beef to maintain its tender texture and prevent dryness.
- Use lean ground beef for a healthier version of the dish, reducing overall fat content.
- For a vegetarian twist, swap ground beef with plant-based crumbles or finely chopped mushrooms to create a similar hearty texture.
