Hamburger Stroganoff

This is one of those posts that I have been meaning to update for the longest time. If you can believe it, this Hamburger Stroganoff was one of the very first recipes I shared on Love Bakes Good Cakes. So, to say I was embarrassed by the original picture is an understatement! I’m not a photography expert by any means, but I do get excited when I have the chance to re-shoot an old recipe. It gives me the chance to see how far I have come in this blogging journey! I hope you enjoy watching the progress as well! 🙂

This Hamburger Stroganoff recipe is great for those crazy nights! Not only is it super simple and quick, but since it uses ground beef, it’s a bit more budget-friendly … and I know we can all use some of that! For nights when I need dinner lightning quick (or those nights when I feel lazy!), I use canned cream of mushroom soup. I have had just as great of success with making my own cream sauce however, and so I have provided BOTH options for you! If you don’t mind canned soup, feel free to use that shortcut. If canned soup is not your style, no worries there either – the from-scratch sauce comes together quickly and easily!

Ingredients 

  • 1 lb. lean ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted, 10-3/4 oz. (see note below)
  • 4 oz. mushrooms, chopped
  • 1 cup sour cream, 8 oz.
  • Hot cooked wide egg noodles
  • Chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions 

  • Cook beef, onion, and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.
  • Stir in soup. Simmer uncovered for about 10 minutes.
  • Stir in sour cream and cook until mixture is hot. DO NOT BOIL!
  • Serve over cooked noodles. Garnish with parsley, if desired.

Notes

To make condensed soup substitute:
  • Melt 2 tbsp. butter in a saucepan.
  • Stir in 3 tbsp. flour and stir until smooth and bubbly. While continuously stirring, add 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1/2 cup milk. Bring to a low boil, continuing to stir until it thickens.
  • Salt and pepper to taste. Use in place of canned cream of “whatever kind” of soup. You can also add herbs, celery or mushrooms.

    I have been making Hamburger Stroganoff for over 30 years…..my recipe also calls for ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. Those additions make it have the tanginess stroganoff needs. 🙂 Try adding a Tablespoon of each at the same time you add the soup. 🙂

    Oh Jamie, I'm so observant! This is the recipe I was telling you about. I had just went to the store and bought the ingredients, for a Thursday Post. Oh well 🙂 we have supper for tonight anyways. It is one of my family's favorites. So quick and easy, I made it a lot when my kids were growing up. Pinned it!
