Mushroom Stroganoff: Incredibly Delicious Recipe!

INGREDIENTS You Need

This Mushroom Stroganoff ingredient list is all about bold flavors that actually work together! Don’t be intimidated by the list; most of these are pantry staples you probably already have.

  • 1 pound mixed mushrooms, sliced (cremini, shiitake, oyster)
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine (like Sauvignon Blanc)
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (or vegetarian alternative)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 pound egg noodles

This Mushroom Stroganoff gets its amazing taste from the blend of mushrooms, Dijon mustard, and a splash of white wine. It’s the perfect combination of earthy, tangy, and rich.

No worries if you don’t have white wine – I use a tablespoon of lemon juice mixed with 1/2 cup of water all the time in my vegetarian stroganoff! It still brings that needed brightness.

You can grab the mushrooms and sour cream during your normal shopping trip; everything else is probably already waiting in your pantry!

I love adding an extra pinch of red pepper flakes to my Mushroom Stroganoff for that extra kick. It adds a subtle heat that really elevates the flavors. Store the mushrooms in a paper bag in the fridge to keep them fresh for longer. This is my Mushroom Stroganoff secret that takes it from good to incredible!

Fresh ingredients for making Mushroom Stroganoff including mushrooms, onions, garlic, herbs, and seasonings

Let’s Make Some!

Alright, fellow food lovers, let’s dive into making this amazing Mushroom Stroganoff! Follow these steps, and you’ll be enjoying a bowl of creamy, flavorful goodness in no time. Many love how easy it is to make this vegetarian stroganoff, especially when using fresh ingredients.

  1. Cook the egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside. This ensures they’re ready to soak up all that delicious Mushroom Stroganoff sauce later!
  2. In a large skillet or pot, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. This is where the magic starts happening!
  3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic; burnt garlic is NOT your friend.
  4. Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and are nicely browned, about 8-10 minutes. Don’t overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary to get a good sear on the mushrooms. This builds great flavor for the Mushroom Stroganoff!
  5. Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. This is called “deglazing” and adds a ton of flavor to your Mushroom Stroganoff recipe!
  6. Stir in the vegetable broth, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Your Mushroom Stroganoff should smell absolutely incredible right now!
  7. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream. Be gentle and don’t let it boil, or the sour cream might curdle. This is my favorite part of making Mushroom Stroganoff – watch the magic happen!
  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste. I always recommend starting with a little and adding more as needed.
  9. Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce. Make sure every strand is covered in that creamy Mushroom Stroganoff goodness!
  10. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious vegetarian stroganoff!

In my kitchen, this Mushroom Stroganoff usually takes about 30 minutes from start to finish. While your Mushroom Stroganoff is doing its thing, get ready for some amazing aromas! If you want a vegan mushroom stroganoff then check out this vegan mushroom stroganoff.

Don’t worry if your Mushroom Stroganoff looks a little thin at first; the sauce will thicken as it sits. I once accidentally added a splash of soy sauce instead of Worcestershire sauce (oops!), and it actually added a nice umami flavor to the Mushroom Stroganoff. Happy accidents are the best!

Serving this Mushroom Stroganoff is all about creating a complete and satisfying meal. I love to enjoy this vegetarian stroganoff with a simple side salad and some crusty bread for soaking up all that delicious sauce.

For a fusion twist, I’ve even tried adding a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and a drizzle of truffle oil. Talk about a flavor explosion!

I’ve also experimented with different types of pasta. While egg noodles are classic, you could also use fettuccine or even a gluten-free pasta. Another variation is to mix it with mac and cheese just like in this Vegan Mushroom Stroganoff Mac and Cheese.

How can I prep this Mushroom Stroganoff for busy weeknights?

You can use plain Greek yogurt as a substitute for sour cream in this vegetarian stroganoff. It will add a similar tanginess and creaminess. Some also use crème fraîche.
