The Best Beef Stroganoff

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Main Dish - Other

I have followed dozens of recipes for this dish and have combined the things I like from some and left out some stuff from others to perfect this dish.

 "I love Stroganoff, and this recipe was good. Easy to make with ingreadients I had in the house. Except I was short on the amount of sour cream I had in the fridge. My sauce was looking pretty thick, (plus I had more than a pound of meat), so I added about 1/2 can mushroom soup and a few table spoons of milk to get to the right consistancy. Then I always add a couple splashes of white wine to my stroanoff. Thank you. It pleased my whole family." - rjhalvor

    Great recipe I only added 1/2 cup of red wine. Fantastic.

    Yum! I didn't use the nutmeg because I don't like it but doesn't matter because it was awesome! Thanks.

    Going into my 'repeat' file. This turned out wonderfully done with venison roast (sliced...) in the crock pot. The house smelled incredible when we walked in, added mushrooms while the noodles cooked, then the sour cream last minute. Oh yes!

    This is a great recipe...great for a Sunday when I have time for the simmer wait. I added a cup of red cooking wine to the water and added season salt to the flour dredge. Meat was tender and juicy.

    So quick and easy! We absolutely loved it - no nutmeg cos I didn't have any so wont put it in when I make it next time. I double the bacon and used tender frying steak and only cooked it for 30mins. This will be a recipe I cook again and again - I can't wait!!!

    Fantastic, only thing I will change next time is more bacon. It really adds a lot to this dish!

    I thought it was okay...my hubby wasn't a big fan, said it was bland. Guess we won't be making it again.

    ***I followed this recipe exactly as stated. I was hesitant about the nutmeg, but gave it a try. Excellent. Use all the bacon fat to brown the meat - PRG ***
