Here are some tips for the main ingredients you’ll need to make this delicious Russian dish at home. Find the full list of ingredients in the printable recipe card below.
- Beef: Traditionally, a cheaper cut of beef or ground beef is used for this beef stroganoff recipe. I love to use beef tenderloin or tenderloin tips because it’s super tender and delicious.
- Mushrooms: white, brown or even portabella mushrooms will all work great.
- Egg Noodles: noodles, pasta, rice or even mashed potatoes will all taste delicious as the base for the beef sauce.

How to Make Easy Beef Stroganoff
Here’s how to make this easy and delicious beef noodle dish:

- In the same pan, melt the butter, then add the sliced mushrooms, onion and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and sauté until onion and mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes.
- Next, sprinkle the flour into the pan, stir to incorporate it and cook for 1 minute. Then pour in the wine, beef broth and milk. Allow the mixture to come up to a simmer, then add the prepared beef. Simmer for 7 to 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
