Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 1 ¼ pounds (560 grams) stew meat cut into bite sized cubes
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 10 ounces (280 grams) cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 8 cups (2 liters) beef broth
  • 3 cups (8 ounces) (225 grams) wide egg noodles uncooked
  • ¾ cup (180 ml) sour cream
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Place the stew meat in a medium bowl and season it generously with salt and pepper. Mix to combine.
  • In a dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the dutch oven is hot, sear the meat a few minutes on each side until browned. Remove the pieces of meat with a spoon and transfer it to a bowl and set it aside. (You do not have to cook the meat all the way through. It will continue to cook when we add the broth and simmer it.)
  • Add the remaining olive oil to the dutch oven and saute the onions, mushrooms, and garlic until the onions start to become translucent about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add the tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce to the pot and stir together to combine.
  • Return the seared meat back to the pot and pour in the beef broth. Bring it to a boil and simmer covered for 20 minutes, or until the beef is tender.
  • Add the dried egg noodles and continue to simmer until noodles are al dente, about 5 minutes.
  • As soon as you start cooking the noodles, combine the sour cream and cornstarch in a large measuring cup and mix together. Add about a cup of the hot broth from the pot and whisk together until there are no clumps of cornstarch.
  • Stir it into the pot and continue simmering it with the noodles, until the broth begins to thicken. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve.

Notes

  • Mixing the sour cream and cornstarch with a small amount of hot broth helps to temper the mixture so that you can avoid any clumps in the soup.
  • It only takes a few minutes to get a really nice sear on the beef pieces. Avoid overcooking the meat at this stage.
  • You don't want to boil the sour cream. So once you add it to the pot, be sure to keep the soup at a simmer until it is finished cooking.
  • To Store: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The noodles will continue to absorb liquid from the broth, so you may prefer to eat it sooner than that though.
  • To Freeze: If you’d like to freeze this soup, make it without the noodles. Freeze for up to 2 months. When you’re ready to serve, thaw and reheat, adding freshly cooked noodles. 
  • Crockpot Instructions:
    • Sear the beef and then transfer it to the slow cooker. Then saute the mushrooms, onions, and garlic, and transfer those to the pot.
    • Add beef broth, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce, and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or high for 4-6 hours.
    • Cook the egg noodles separately on the stovetop,
    • Before serving, stir in the noodles and a slurry of sour cream, cornstarch, and  1 cup of hot broth from the pot. Heat over the "warm" setting until thickened.
