Today, I’m excited to share my delightful one-pot stroganoff recipe, which features a surprising ingredient that elevates the savory flavor to a whole new level. This dish is the ideal solution for those hectic mid-week evenings when you find yourself unsure of what to whip up for dinner.

WHAT IS STROGANOFF?
Let’s start at the beginning. Stroganoff in its most humble and original forms, is actually a Russian Dish of beef in sour cream gravy. Of course, as with all dishes, especially thanks to the US and its large grouping and intermingling of cultures, the dish has changed. Everyone has their own version. Even the way I make it isn’t exactly the way I grew up eating it.
Also… apparently, the dish is named after a very old and influential family…That’s my fun (probably useless) fact of the day for you.
MAKING STROGANOFF
Stroganoff is a classic dish with a simple recipe. Making it in one pot makes it even easier.
Start by cooking the ground beef in a stockpot until it’s browned. If there’s a lot of fat, drain it off. You’ll need about two tablespoons for the onions and mushrooms.
Turn the burner to medium and add the reserved fat, ground beef, and onions into the pot. Stir occasionally until the onions are translucent.
Now, add the garlic, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and fish sauce (about two-thirds of a shake of each). Stir until the garlic is fragrant.
Add the mushrooms and cook until they’re heated through and lightly browned.
Slowly pour in the beef bone broth and egg noodles. Simmer at medium-low heat until the broth is thickened and the noodles are cooked to your liking (you’ll need to stir occasionally to prevent sticking or burning).
Stir in the heavy cream, whole milk, and sour cream. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Serve and enjoy your delicious stroganoff!
THE SECRET INGREDIENT
The ingredients in my version are fairly similar to the ones you use in most recipes, except for one. You’ll notice in my recipe, I use fish sauce as one of the ingredients. Before you judge, hear me out! Fish sauce, although yes, has a very distinct smell, it tastes AMAZING in dishes! It has quickly become my “secret weapon” in my cooking repertoire. Still not sure about adding it? You can read more in my How to Use Fish Sauce Blog Post.
