Classic Beef Stroganoff

The name of the dish reminds us of Count Alexander Grigorievich Stroganov, whose chef first prepared this dish. The combination of beef with a delicate creamy sauce has already become a classic, and the dish is a favorite dish for many people around the world.

How to cook Classic Beef Stroganoff

Classic Beef Stroganoff - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute beef with pork, chicken, or turkey for a lighter version. However, cooking times may vary, so adjust accordingly to ensure the meat is fully cooked.
For a dairy-free alternative, try coconut cream or a dairy-free yogurt. The flavor will differ slightly, but it will still provide a creamy texture.
Replace the beef with hearty mushrooms (like portobello), tofu, or seitan. Increase the quantity of mushrooms for a meaty texture and follow the same cooking steps.
Yes, you can make it 1-2 days in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of broth if needed.
Freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat on the stove over low heat, stirring occasionally to maintain creaminess.
Traditionally, it’s served with egg noodles, but it also pairs well with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread for dipping.
Absolutely! Brown the meat and onions first, then transfer everything to a slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, adding sour cream at the end.
Mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and stir into the sauce, simmering until thickened. Alternatively, let it cook uncovered for a few extra minutes.
The recipe is naturally gluten-free if you serve it with gluten-free noodles or rice. Just ensure all packaged ingredients (like broth or sour cream) are gluten-free.
Yes, diced bell peppers, carrots, or peas can add color and nutrition. Sauté them with the onions for even cooking.
