Cooking Steps
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef for about 5–7 minutes until cooked through.
  2. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic; sauté for another 3–4 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the mixture; stir well. Gradually add the beef broth while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Simmer for 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Reduce heat and fold in sour cream; season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3–4 days in the fridge or freeze for up to three months. Reheat with a splash of broth if it looks dry. For variations, try spinach or a vegan option with lentils and coconut milk.
