Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces egg noodles
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for sautéing
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 16 ounces mushrooms sliced (cremini, white button, or mix)
  • 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth use vegetable broth for vegetarian version
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce use vegetarian brand if desired
  • 1 cup sour cream for creamy richness
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • fresh parsley chopped for garnish

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Large skillet or sauté pan
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Colander
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Knife and cutting board

Method
 

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 8 ounces of egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 7-8 minutes. Drain and set aside. Toss with a little butter or olive oil if desired to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for about 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant but not browned.
  3. Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and start to brown.
  4. Pour in 1 cup of chicken or vegetable broth and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce. Stir well, scraping any browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to reduce slightly and concentrate the flavors.
  5. Lower the heat to medium-low. Add 1 cup of sour cream and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard. Stir gently until the sauce is creamy and smooth. Avoid boiling after adding sour cream to prevent curdling. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Add the cooked egg noodles directly into the skillet with the mushroom sauce. Toss gently to coat the noodles evenly in the creamy sauce. Warm through for 1-2 minutes.
  7. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top for a fresh, vibrant finish. Serve immediately and enjoy the comforting goodness!

Notes

  • Use vegetable broth and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce to keep the recipe fully vegetarian.
  • Slice mushrooms about ¼ inch thick for even cooking and caramelization.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat gently with a splash of broth if needed.
  • For a vegan version, substitute sour cream with coconut or cashew cream and use vegan Worcestershire sauce.
  • Add cooked chicken, tofu, or tempeh for extra protein if desired.
