Savory Beef Stroganoff Recipe: A Delectable Twist

Ingredients

• Thinly sliced beef stew meat weighing one pound
• Finely chopped onion
• Two cups of water
• Crumbled beef bouillon cubes (like Oxo®)
• A can of creamy mushroom soup (10.75 ounces)
• A packet of egg noodles (16 ounces)

Step 1

Begin by heating up a large skillet on medium heat, allowing it to warm up nicely. Once ready, start cooking the beef in the skillet, giving it an occasional stir. Let the fat from the meat render out for about 1 to 2 minutes. Then, toss in the onion and sauté the flavorful mix until the beef turns a delightful shade of brown, which should take about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Next, pour some water into the skillet and sprinkle in the beef bouillon. Lower the heat to a gentle simmer and let the mixture cook slowly until most of the liquid has evaporated, which usually takes around 90 minutes. This step will allow the flavors to meld beautifully.

Step 3

After the liquid has reduced, stir in the cream of mushroom soup into the beefy concoction. Keep cooking everything together until it's all warmed through, adding an extra depth of richness and creaminess. This process typically takes about 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 4

Meanwhile, in a separate large pot, bring some lightly salted water to a lively boil. Once bubbling, add the egg noodles and give them an occasional stir as they cook. You want them to be tender but still have a slight firmness when bitten, which should take around 5 minutes. Once done, drain the noodles well.

Step 5

To serve, divide the cooked noodles evenly among 4 plates, creating a cozy nest for the savory beef mixture. Spoon the flavorful beef and mushroom mix generously over the bed of noodles, ensuring each plate gets a hearty portion of this comforting dish. Enjoy the delicious meal you've prepared with love and care!
