Ingredients for Ground Beef Stroganoff
Beef stroganoff is a popular comfort food recipe that originated in Russia and now it’s loved pretty much all over.
It’s basically a meat and noodle dish with sour cream. So, what ingredients go in stroganoff?
- Beef
- Mushrooms
- Egg noodles
- Oil & butter
- Aromatics, like onion and garlic
- Seasonings like salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce
- Flour (to thicken)
- Beef broth/stock (for the sauce base)
- Sour cream (adds a lushness to the stroganoff and definitely a must, if you ask me)
Why Use Ground Beef?
Traditionally, stroganoff is made with a cut of beef (usually cubed), like sirloin or (for something extra special) beef tenderloin.
The benefit of making a ground beef stroganoff, though, is that it’s pretty budget friendly, cooks quickly and there’s absolutely no compromise in taste!
How To Make Ground Beef Stroganoff
Full details are in the recipe card below, but here are the basics:
- Heat some olive oil in your Instant Pot and add onion and garlic. Cook for a few minutes until onion has softened a tad.
- Next, cook mushrooms for a little.
- Add ground beef, salt and pepper and cook until fully cooked through.
- Pour in Worcestershire sauce.
- From overhead, sprinkle in flour. Stir.
- Beef broth is added next.
- Stir in egg noodles. Cover and pressure cook.
- After cook time is up and the steam has been released, carefully unlock lid.
- Stir in sour cream.
- Add parsley and stir in.
- Grab a ladle (or two).
- Portion into a dish and enjoy!
How Long Does This Beef Stroganoff Recipe Last?
Properly store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and use within 2 to 4 days, reheating before serving.
Reheating Leftovers
Leftover stroganoff reheats wonderfully!
Of course (like with any leftover pasta) it will congeal as it cools, but when it hits the heat it will loosen up beautifully.
To reheat, simply pour a little beef brothinto a non-stick frying pan over medium heat (amount of broth will vary depending on how much leftovers you are reheating), add leftovers, cover and cook for about 10 minutes (stirring occasionally) or until it’s heated through.
Tip: It’s better to start with just a little broth because you don’t want to water down your leftovers. About 3 tablespoons is a good place to start.
What To Serve With Beef Stroganoff
This is honestly a hearty meal all by itself, but if you want to make things even more substantial it’s yummy with any of these:
- Crusty bread
- Simple green salad
- Steamed or sautéed green beans
- Sautéed red cabbage
Tips and Variations
- Extra lean ground beef was used, but you would totally use a less lean variety. Just carefully drain any excess fat after the beef has been cooked.
- Mushroom stock or broth is a great alternative to beef broth.
- Parsley adds some freshness and a pop of colour. Another herb option would be dill. A little finely chopped chives or green onion would be yummy as well.
- For extra savoury flavour, try adding a little Dijon mustard when you add the Worcestershire sauce.
- Baby bella mushrooms were used, but you could use white button instead, if you like.

Time for Instant Pot To Come To Pressure 8 minutes mins

Course Main Course
Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 yellow onion, peeled and diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces baby bella (cremini) mushrooms, sliced (about 227 grams)
- 1 pound extra lean ground beef
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1.5 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 cups low sodium beef stock or broth
- 3 cups egg noodles (uncooked), about 5 ounces
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Set Instant Pot to "Sauté." (I used an 8-quart Instant Pot.)
Note: Settings may vary on your Instant Pot, depending on the model. Please refer to the manufacturer's guide on how to use your Instant Pot.
Adjust the [+] or [-] button to set the timer to 25 minutes.
Heat olive oil and butter in the Instant Pot. Add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring often, for 3 to 5 minutes or until onion is softened a little. Stir in mushrooms and cook, stirring every so often, for 5 to 8 minutes. Add ground beef, salt and black pepper. Cook, breaking the ground beef into small pieces and stirring occasionally, until the ground beef is fully cooked through (the ground beef should no longer be pink and be browned all the way through), about 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and sprinkle flour from over top. Stir in. Pour in beef stock and stir in egg noodles. If there is any time left on the timer, press "Cancel."
Close and lock lid. Set the vent on the lid to "Sealing" (steam valve in closed position). Ensure you follow the manufacturer's guide for closing and locking the lid.
Next, select the "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" (default high setting) button (depending on which model you have). Adjust the [+] or [-] button to set the timer to 5 minutes (it will take 5 to 8 minutes or so for the Instant Pot to come to pressure before counting down the 5 minutes).
After the pressure cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for Quick Release and wait until the Quick Release cycle is complete. Unlock and remove lid, being careful of any remaining steam (ensure you follow the manufacturer's guide for unlocking and removing the lid).
Stir in sour cream and parsley. Serve and enjoy!
Note: If you have any leftovers, properly store in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within 2 to 4 days, reheating when ready to enjoy.
