Beef Stroganoff RecipeThere are 2 critical factors for beef stroganoff: (1) quick searing of high quality beef and (2) the right proportions of sauce ingredients for a balanced sauce that makes the beef really shine.

What is the Best Beef for Stroganoff?This recipe relies on a quick sear (1 minute per side) so a high quality, tender steak is critical for best results. A poor quality steak will be chewy and tough. My old Russian Cookbook (circa 1990) recommends a filet mignon but it also works very well with:

Top Sirloin (be sure it says “TOP sirloin”)
Boneless Ribeye steak
Beef Tenderloin
Filet Mignon tips
If you are looking for a less expensive alternative, some have reported good results using ground chuck beef.

What is Stroganoff Sauce Made of?Although this recipe calls for a high quality steak, stroganoff sauce has humble ingredients that produce rich and memorable flavor. The original sauce has been modified as it has traveled the world. Some have added wine (like this slow cooker stroganoff) and a variety of seasonings, but the base of a good stroganoff sauce is simple:

Broth (we use beef broth)
Whipping Cream
Sour Cream
Mustard

How to Serve Beef Stroganoff:Beef stroganoff is packed with flavor from it’s creamy mushroom sauce so pair it with simple grains or starches that won’t compete with the sauce, such as:

Egg noodles, lightly buttered (our favorite!)
Creamy mashed potatoes
Steamy white rice
Buckwheat Kasha

Who Invented Beef Stroganoff?Beef Stroganoff was invented in Russia in the early 1800’s. Count Stroganoff was a dignitary in the court of Alexander III. Count Stroganoff’s chef (who was likely French), created the dish and named it after Stroganoff. I found a picture of Count Pavel Stroganoff, but wish I could find the chef as well! The earliest known recorded recipe was published in this Russian cookbook published in 1871.
