Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Beef Base
  • 1.5-2 lb beef stew meat cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 8 oz sliced mushrooms optional, Baby Bella or white mushrooms
Seasoning
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
Sauce Base
  • 2 can cream of mushroom soup 10.5 oz cans
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 0.5 cup water or beef broth
Creamy Finish
  • 1 cup sour cream added at the end of cooking
For Serving
  • 16 oz egg noodles cooked separately
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped for garnish

Method
 

  1. Place the beef stew meat into the slow cooker. Add the diced onion and sliced mushrooms and spread everything evenly.
  2. Sprinkle the garlic salt and black pepper over the beef and vegetables so the seasoning absorbs during cooking.
  3. Add the cream of mushroom soup, Worcestershire sauce, and water or beef broth. Stir gently until the mixture is well combined.
  4. Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on LOW for 7–8 hours or on HIGH for 3–4 hours until the beef becomes very tender.
  5. About 20 minutes before serving, cook the egg noodles in boiling water according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  6. Once the beef is fully cooked, stir in the sour cream slowly until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.
  7. Serve the beef stroganoff over cooked egg noodles and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For deeper flavor, you can brown the beef in a skillet before adding it to the crockpot. If you prefer a lighter option, replace the sour cream with plain Greek yogurt and stir it in at the end of cooking. The dish freezes best before adding sour cream; add it fresh when reheating for the best creamy texture.
