Some optional ingredients you might consider include:
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
- 1 small onion, chopped (optional)
Dry Ingredients:
- 6 ounces Egg Noodles
- 1/4 cup Flour
Wet Ingredients:
- 1 pounds Ground Beef
- 1/4 cup Butter
- 1 cup Beef Broth
- 1 1/4 cup Milk
- 1/4 cup Sour Cream
Seasonings:
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1 teaspoon Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
- Cook the Noodles: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Cook the Beef: While the noodles are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until fully browned about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat and transfer beef to a plate.
- Make the Roux: In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk continuously for about 2 minutes to form a roux.
- Prepare the Sauce: Gradually pour in the beef broth while whisking to avoid lumps. Cook and whisk until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes. Then, slowly whisk in the milk and cook until the sauce is smooth and thickened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add Seasonings: Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and salt, ensuring even distribution throughout the sauce.
- Combine Noodles and Beef: Reduce heat to low. Add the cooked noodles and browned beef back into the skillet, stirring until combined and heated through.
- Finish with Sour Cream: Gently stir in the sour cream until fully incorporated, creating a creamy, tangy sauce.
- Serve: Serve hot, possibly with vegetables or garlic bread for a hearty meal.
