Ingredients
- 12 ounces medium egg noodles
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon hamburger seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon beef bouillon powder, or 1 cube
- 1 can (10.75 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
- ½ cup (115 g) sour cream
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to package directions until al dente, stirring occasionally. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the noodles and set aside.
- While the noodles cook, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon or spatula, until browned and no longer pink, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed.
- Stir in the hamburger seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, and beef bouillon. Cook for 30 to 60 seconds, stirring constantly, until the bouillon is fully dissolved.
- Add the cream of mushroom soup and stir until fully combined and heated through, about 2 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in the sour cream until smooth and creamy. If the sauce feels too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta water* until it reaches your desired consistency. Heat gently for 2 to 3 more minutes; do not boil.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- Serve one of two ways:Spoon the stroganoff sauce over the cooked egg noodles, orAdd the drained noodles directly to the skillet and toss until well coated (add a splash of pasta water* if needed to loosen the sauce).
- Top with chopped parsley and serve.

Notes
*For extra savory flavor, you can stir a small pinch of beef bouillon powder into the reserved pasta water before adding it to the sauce. This helps deepen the overall taste of the stroganoff while also adjusting the sauce consistency.
