This Instant Pot Beef Stroganoff is made with ground beef, wide egg noodles and it cooks in 4 minutes. No canned soup needed!
The pressure cooker allows you to make pasta dinners in minutes, like my popular Spaghetti recipe or my Chili Mac recipe.
One of our favorite pasta dinners is definitely beef stroganoff. It was just a matter of time before I had a delicious version of it cooked in my Instant Pot! It's even faster to make and 100% family approved. I prefer cooking pasta with meat as it makes the dish more flavorful. Simply brown the meat with seasoning, onion and garlic, then add liquids and pasta. Pressure cooking time is only 4 minutes, then just a quick release and your dish is ready for sour cream. Serve it with garlic bread to soak up every bit of the delicious sauce!
Ingredients:
- beef: I used lean ground beef but ground turkey works perfectly too
- pasta: I used wide egg noodles
- seasoning: salt, pepper and paprika
- mushrooms: I used baby Bella
- Worcestershire sauce: required for the classic Stroganoff taste
- onion and garlic
- flour
- beef stock
- sour cream: the amount depends on how creamy you want the dish to be
How to make Instant Pot Beef Stroganoff?
- Start by heating up oil in the Instant Pot on saute setting.
- Add onion and garlic and saute until almost translucent.
- Add mushrooms and beef and cook until no longer pink.
- Add flour and seasoning and stir in.
- Add ½ cup of beef stock and scrape the bottom of the pot to make sure no food is cooked on as it will cause the burn message to show up.
- Add remaining beef stock, Worcestershire sauce and noodles. Press the noodles to almost submerge in the liquid.

- Close the lid, press "manual" or "pressure cook" button and set timer to 4 minutes.
- Wait 1 minute, then release the pressure by switching the valve to venting position.
- Carefully open the lid and stir in the dish.
- Wait 5 minutes, then stir again and add sour cream. Stir in.
Expert tips:
- beef: I used ground beef because it allows you to cook the whole dish quicker; if you want to use stew meat, you need to cook it first and let the Instant Pot release the pressure naturally (it can take around 12 minutes), then add pasta and cook the dish again.
- noodles: for the classic look, I used wide egg noodles but any bite-size pasta or even fettuccine will work too
- cooking time: as with any pasta dish cooked in the Instant Pot, you should wait one minute after the cooking cycle is done and before releasing the pressure to avoid excessive splattering.
- sour cream: use more or less, depending on how creamy you like your beef stroganoff.
Storing leftovers:
All leftovers should be stored in a container with lid, in the fridge, for up to 4 days. Easily reheat the dish in a microwave or a pan. You may need to add a little bit of liquid (stock, water or milk) for a creamier texture.

Greg says
Incredibly easy to make.. I want one more ingredient to make it "beefier" or something but can't figure out what. hot sauce maybe?
everyone loved it.. thanks!
Shauna says
More Worcestershire sauce, and/or a bit of beef bouillon added to your beef when youre cooking it. About a 1/2 teaspoon (or half a cube if you've got those cubes) or so. I cook my ground beef in the extra bouillon (I say extra because I use the boullion powder to make ny beef broth i use for the recipe) and about a 1/2 tsp of extra Worcestershire sauce cause we like the extra beef flavor too. I originally did it to substitute ground turkey and make it taste more beef like but i liked it so much I do it every time now.
