This Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff is a firm family favourite, so easy to make and packed with delicious comforting flavours.
Beef Stroganoff is Russian in origin, it is essentially sauteed beef served with a rich hearty sauce that is finished with sour cream. It lends itself perfectly to a slow cooker as slow cooking brings out even more flavour and creates super tender meat.
I have been making this for years for the family, I have often over the years used a packet mix for my beef stroganoff, but this is so easy and packed full of flavour, plus you know what you are eating with this one.
Using simple ingredients, these are the pantry staples you will want for many slow cooker dinners so really handy to have on hand. I have made the recipe as simple as possible for this reason. The basic ingredients are the same for many variations of this recipe you will find online.
The beef you use is up to you, for slow cooking I recommend Chuck or Blade Steak, skirt or brisket. Any of those cheaper cuts of meat lend themselves perfectly to slow cooking. The higher fat content and cartilage break down over time and create incredible flavour and texture.
The ingredients you will need are as follows
- Beef, see above for type
- Oil
- Onion
- Garlic
- Mushrooms
- Flour
- Paprika
- Beef Stock
- Tomato Sauce or Paste
- Worcestershire Sauce
- Salt & Pepper
- Sour Cream
Some add dijon or wholegrain mustard also for extra flavour, about a tablespoon would do.

Hi Anna Can you freeze the Beef Stroganoff with the sour cream added to it or do you leave it out till you heat and serve it?
Ideally I would leave it out if freezing and add it once you have reheated the dish. However I have frozen it before with it in and it’s ok, it’s just better without.
Can I switch tomato sauce for tomato paste or puree?
Yes definitely
