Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450 grams) ground beef (80/20)
  • 12 ounces (340 grams) egg noodles
  • 8 ounces (225 grams) white or cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 ½ cups (360 ml) beef broth
  • ¾ cup (180 ml) full-fat sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package instructions, about 7-9 minutes until al dente. Drain and set aside. Toss with a little butter or olive oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add sliced mushrooms and cook 5-6 minutes until browned and moisture evaporates. Stir in minced garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Push mushroom mixture to the side of the skillet. Add ground beef and cook over medium-high heat until browned, about 6-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  4. Sprinkle flour over beef and mushroom mixture. Stir to coat and cook 1-2 minutes to remove raw flour taste. Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring to avoid lumps. Add Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard. Simmer 4-5 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
  5. Remove skillet from heat. Gently stir in sour cream until sauce is smooth and creamy. Do not boil after adding sour cream to prevent curdling. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Add drained egg noodles to skillet and gently toss to coat with sauce. Warm through 1-2 minutes over low heat if needed.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Do not boil the sauce after adding sour cream to prevent curdling. If sauce is too thick, whisk in a splash of beef broth or water. For a dairy-free version, substitute sour cream with coconut or cashew cream and butter with olive oil. Use gluten-free noodles and check labels for gluten-free Worcestershire sauce and broth to make gluten-free.
