InstaPot

Ingredients

2 pounds stew meat

salt and pepper to taste

1 cup sliced mushrooms

3 teaspoons minced garlic

3 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons flour

3 cups beef broth

4 tablespoons worcestershire sauce

10 ounces egg noodles

½ cup sour cream

2 tablespoons corn starch + ¼ cup beef broth - or cold water, optional

Directions

First, set your pressure cooker to the “sauté” function. Add the butter, garlic, and mushrooms to the pot. When the butter is completely melted, you can sprinkle in the flour and then stir it all together to coat the mushrooms.

Now, add to the mushrooms the 3 cups beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and the stew meat. Add a cup of beef broth at a time and stir if you prefer to make sure everything gets mixed together well before cooking.

Add the lid, lock, and turn the steam valve to the sealed position. Set your Instant pot to the “pressure cook” setting for 15 minutes.

When the 15 minutes is up, do a “quick release” by turning the valve to the venting position and removing the lid once the float valve drops.

Stir in the egg noodles and set to “pressure cook” or “manual” for another 3 minutes, followed by quick release.

Stir in the sour cream, taste it and add more salt and pepper as needed. Serve.

For a thicker stroganoff sauce, you can set the pressure cooker to the “soup” setting, whisk together 1/4 cup broth and corn starch in a small bowl, and then stir that into the stroganoff. Once sauce comes to a boil and has thickened, serve.

Top either version with fresh parsley for a lovely and tasty garnish.
