Instructions:
- Sear the Beef:
- Salt and pepper the beef that has been thinly sliced. The vegetable oil should be heated over medium-high heat in a sizable skillet or pan. To brown the beef evenly, sear it in batches. From the skillet, take out the beef, and set it aside.
- SautΓ© Onion and Garlic:
- Melt the butter over medium heat in the same skillet. Add the minced garlic and onion, and cook until the onion is translucent.
- Cook the Mushrooms:
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they are tender and lightly browned.
- Make the Creamy Sauce:
- The mushrooms should be coated with the all-purpose flour after being sprinkled with it. To get rid of the taste of raw flour, cook for one minute.
- Pour the beef broth in gradually while stirring frequently to prevent lumps. The sauce should simmer until it slightly thickens.
- Add Sour Cream and Seasonings:
- Stir in the sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard after turning the heat down to low. Mix the sauce up until it’s creamy and smooth.
- Incorporate the Beef:
- Return the seared beef to the skillet, combining it with the creamy mushroom sauce. Let it simmer together for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Adjust Seasonings and Serve:
- Upon tasting the Creamy Beef Stroganoff, add additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Cooked egg noodles or rice should be used as a bed for the Creamy Beef Stroganoff.
- For an additional splash of color and freshness, garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
