Vegan / Gout Friendly recipe for stroganoff using Beyond Meat instead of ground beef.

Vegan stroganoff recipe πŸ„ - James Strange % (1)

Growing up, the only stroganoff I know about was the Hamburger Helper kind. Not bad, but nothing too exciting. It was not until I was stationed in San Diego that I had good beef stroganoff, not a rich sauce with mushrooms and lots of carbs.

Since I have been controlling gout with my diet, beef stock and ground beef have been off the menu. When I saw some plant-based sour cream in the market, I knew what was for dinner.

Beyond Beef was also used in my Bibimbap recipe and Beyond meat tacos recipe.

Our Ingredients are:

Eggless ribbon noodles. You can use any noodles you like, but to keep these vegan eggless ribbon noodles used.

Plant-based sour cream. Sour cream adds richness, creaminess, and a little tartness to the sauce. This one was a little sharper than the dairy type but worked well in the recipe.

Vegetarian seasoning. This one has mushroom extract and kelp extract. This added extra glutamate to the dish to really enhance the mushroom flavor. Orrington Farms also makes a good vegan broth base. But you can use any type that you like.

Veggie stock: Yep, I should make my own like in the veggie soup recipe, but with work, that is not always practical. Making my own stock would also reduce the sodium in the dish.

Beyond Beef: I did find a store that carries this package and not just the pattiesβ€”one word of caution, the smell when cooking is a little odd.

Flour: The flour is used to make a roux. All-purpose flour was used, but if all you have is self-rising, it will work.

Mushrooms: They get cleaned and and cut into thick slices.

Onion: Finely diced

Garlic powder: If you prefer use fresh but I was lazy. Best would be to use some fresh and some powder.

Salt: Even with all of the other sodium in the dish it still needs salt.

Black Pepper:

Fresh Parsley: It looks nice and adds some freshness to a heavy dish. But you can leave it out.

Work in batches to fry the mushrooms in a neutral-tasting oil. For me, it’s expeller pressed safflower oil when they are done set them aside.

After the mushrooms are cooked, brown the Beyond Beef. While the β€œbeef” is cooking, keep breaking to up into smaller pieces.

When the β€œbeef” is brown, add your onion and cook until they are soft. Remove from the pan and set aside.

My pan was to small and does not have a lid so cooking was moved to a pot.

A roux will be used to thicken the sauceβ€”time to make the roux. With your pot on medium heat, add two tablespoons of oil and two tablespoons of flour. Stir to combine. Keep slowly stirring until the flour starts to turn color. Add the veggie stock, keep stirring to combine, and bring to a boil. Add the β€œbeef” salt, pepper, and garlic powder. When it comes back to a boil, add the noodles, stir and cover. Keep cooking until the noodles are done. Every minute or so, remove the lid and stir them.

When the noodles are done, remove from the heat and add the mushrooms and stir. Then add in the plant-based sour cream.

Is cornstarch or flour better for gravy? β€Ί

We find that a flour-based gravy holds up better and reheats better later, which is why we tend to prefer using flour over cornstarch to make gravy unless we have a guest who is eating gluten-free.

Does yogurt make sauce thicker? β€Ί

Yogurt can be used to thicken sauces much like heavy cream. You will need to add some starch to keep it from curdling because yogurt lacks the fat of heavy cream. Whisk in two teaspoons of cornstarch or one tablespoon of flour for one cup of yogurt before adding it to hot liquids.

What can I add to stroganoff for more flavor? β€Ί

Quartered mushrooms and a combination of pearl onions and shallots give the finished dish a more interesting texture and flavor. Adding gelatin to the chicken stock gives it more body, letting the sauce come together more tightly to coat the meat and noodles.

What is the best substitute for sour cream in stroganoff? β€Ί

Greek yogurt is a healthy alternative to the traditionally used sour cream in beef stroganoff recipes, so you can be confident that your family is getting a satisfying, healthy meal. Fresh dill and paprika will provide a sweet, slightly smoky garnish to top off the dish.

What is the difference between Russian and Brazilian stroganoff? β€Ί

Brazilian Beef Stroganoff vs Russian Stroganoff

Brazilian beef stroganoff is similar, but it replaces the mustard with tomato paste, ketchup, and worcestershire sauce.

What if my stroganoff is too runny? β€Ί

If too runny, add more flour-water mixture and if too thick, add more sour cream. Serve noodles with stroganoff mixture over the top.

Can you add flour directly to sauce to thicken? β€Ί

Flour-Based Thickeners

A general ratio to work with is 2 tablespoons flour for every cup of liquid. Start by adding a little bit, then cook, stirring, for a few minutes to allow the sauce time to thicken and cook off the raw flour taste; if the results are minimal, add more.

Can you thicken sour cream with flour? β€Ί

Before adding to any hot liquid, bring sour cream to room temperature. Add 1 tablespoon of flour to 1/2 cup of sour cream used as a thickener to discourage curdling.

Can I use flour instead of cornstarch? β€Ί

This means it's possible to swap your cornstarch for flour, but you will need more of it to get the same effect. In general, it's recommended that you use twice as much white flour as cornstarch for thickening purposes. So if you need 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, use 2 tablespoons of white flour.
