Step-by-Step Instructions for Ground Beef Stroganoff
  1. Preheat a large skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Add the ground beef and diced onions, cooking for 5–7 minutes until browned and onions are translucent. Drain excess fat.
  2. Incorporate the sliced mushrooms into the skillet and continue cooking for 4–5 minutes until mushrooms are golden brown and have released moisture.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and let it melt. Stir in 2 tablespoons of flour to form a roux, cooking for about 1 minute until light golden.
  4. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of beef broth, ensuring no lumps. Increase heat to a gentle simmer for 3–4 minutes until sauce thickens.
  5. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 cup of sour cream and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, mixing gently to avoid boiling.
  6. Reintroduce the beef mixture, season with salt and pepper, and stir for about 2 minutes until everything is evenly coated.
  7. Serve immediately over cooked egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes and garnish with fresh herbs.
