Beef stroganoff recipe

What is stroganoff sauce made of? Stroganoff sauce is a sour cream gravy made with beef broth that's thickened with flour. It's flavoured with mustard and has mushrooms in it. I love the pale brown creamy colour against the deep golden brown seared beef!

Traditionally, tenderloin is the meat of choice for Stroganoff, and after testing out a few alternatives—strip steak and ribeye along with more inexpensive cuts like flap meat, hanger, flank, and skirt—I decided to stick with tradition (flap meat and hanger came in a close second).

You can always use a plain greek yogurt instead of sour cream.

My secret ingredient in beef stroganoff is just a touch of nutmeg. This aromatic spice works so well with the rich, creamy sauce and is a nod to the dish's origins. You don't need much, just a little more than half a teaspoon.
