Kid-Friendly Version

Serve a small portion of plain egg noodles and a few pieces of plain beef on the child's plate, with the creamy mushroom sauce on the side for dipping if desired.

Recipe

1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat for the egg noodles.

2

Slice the beef sirloin against the grain into thin strips, about 1/2 cm thick, and season with salt and pepper.

child_care Set aside a few strips of unseasoned beef for the child.
3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef strips in a single layer for 2 minutes per side until browned but not fully cooked. Transfer to a plate.

child_care Cook the child's plain beef strips separately for 3 minutes per side until done, then set aside.
4

Add butter to the same skillet over medium heat. Sauté the sliced mushrooms and diced onion for 5–6 minutes until the mushrooms release their liquid and start to brown. Add minced garlic and cook 1 minute until fragrant.

child_care Scoop out a small portion of plain mushrooms and onion for the child before adding garlic.
5

Stir in paprika, then pour in beef broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3–4 minutes, scraping up browned bits, until the sauce reduces slightly.

6

While the sauce simmers, add the egg noodles to the boiling water and cook according to package directions (about 6–8 minutes) until tender. Drain and set aside.

child_care Reserve a small bowl of plain noodles for the child.
7

Reduce heat to low, stir in sour cream until fully incorporated, then return the beef and any juices to the skillet. Simmer gently for 2 minutes until the beef is cooked through and the sauce is creamy. Taste and adjust salt and pepper.

child_care For the child's plate, combine the reserved plain noodles, plain beef, and plain mushroom-onion mix without the creamy sauce.
8

Serve the stroganoff over the egg noodles, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
