Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef The star of the dish, providing juicy and savory goodness.
  • 1 cup thinly sliced onion Adds a sweet and aromatic base that enhances the overall flavor profile.
  • 8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms Earthy and rich, these mushrooms bring depth and texture.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt A flavorful kick that elevates the dish's taste.
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seed Lends a unique, slightly sweet flavor that complements the beef.
  • 12 ounces uncooked egg noodles These tender noodles serve as the perfect vehicle for the creamy sauce.
  • 3.5 cups beef broth A savory backdrop that ties all the ingredients together.
  • 1/2 cup sour cream Adds a luscious creaminess, making every bite incredibly satisfying.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by heating a Dutch oven sprayed with cooking spray over medium-high heat.
  2. Crumble the ground beef into the pot. As it cooks, add the sliced onions and mushrooms. Sauté until the beef is browned and the onions become tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in garlic salt and caraway seeds to infuse flavor.
  4. Toss in the uncooked egg noodles, then pour in the beef broth. Stir to combine.
  5. Increase the heat to bring the broth to a rapid boil. Once boiling, cover the pot, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes or until the noodles are softened.
  6. Remove the pot from heat and stir in the sour cream. Serve hot.

Notes

Searing the beef and vegetables properly enhances flavor. You can substitute the mushrooms and add fresh herbs for extra flavor.
