⭐ Best Beef Recipes Tips

• Try not to move your ground beef around too much before you start breaking it up. Let it sear first, then gradually break it up in the pot. By allowing the beef to sear first, you’re giving the dish so much more flavor!
• Use lean ground beef for best results. We always prefer an 80/20 mix.

🥗 What to Serve with Beef Stroganoff

Hamburger stroganoff makes a delicious topping for all kinds of sides. We like make this a beef and noodles Instant Pot recipe, but there are plenty of options to choose from beyond egg noodles.

Here are a few suggestions for what you can serve simple beef stroganoff with:

• Mashed potatoes (use the potatoes in our Instant Pot Shepherd’s Pie recipe)
• Rice (we enjoy this Instant Pot White Rice recipe)
• Roasted potatoes (try these Foil Pack Potatoes)
• Garlic bread (use this Garlic Butter recipe)

Can beef stroganoff be made ahead of time?

Yes, easily! You can either complete the entire recipe and store it ahead of time, or complete cooking up until you add the noodles (our preference).

• If you want to cook the entire recipe ahead of time, including the noodles, then reheat on warming mode in your Instant Pot or over low heat in a skillet with a lid on the stove.
• If preparing the sauce without the noodles ahead of time, add your completed sauce and ground beef back to the pot, then warm it up slowly with your pot set to warming mode. Once heated through, add the noodles and cook under pressure according to the instructions above, or serve over your preferred side dish such as mashed potatoes.

How long does beef stroganoff last?

Pressure cooker beef stroganoff will last 3-4 days when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Reheat on warming mode in your Instant Pot or over low heat in a skillet on the stove. We think this beef stroganoff tastes even more delicious the next day!

Is beef stroganoff keto-friendly?

If you’re making Instant Pot beef and noodles, this dish will not be keto-friendly as egg noodles are carb-heavy.

However, you can easily make this dish keto-friendly by leaving out the noodles and serving your beef stroganoff with a low carb side dish like cauliflower rice.

To cut down the carbs even more, remove the flour. Arrowroot powder makes a great thickener for a keto diet. We use it in our Keto Beef and Broccoli!

Is beef stroganoff gluten-free?

This Instant Pot stroganoff recipe uses flour, and so it is not gluten-free.

However, you can easily make this dish gluten-free by leaving out the flour and instead using a gluten-free thickener like cornstarch. Use half as much cornstarch for the ratio of flour (ex. 1/2 tablespoon instead of a full tablespoon).

Egg noodles also usually contain gluten. However, there are gluten-free egg noodle varieties you can use instead. Or, serve over a gluten-free side dish such as mashed potatoes.
