Curry Ground Beef Stroganoff is a simple, quick, and super flavorful dinner idea that your whole family will love.
This Curry Ground Beef Stroganoff is a mash up of two of my very favorite recipes – ground beef stroganoff and our cabbage curry. My kids love it because it tastes great but also because it’s a fun super bright yellow! Serve Curry Ground Beef Stroganoff with roasted carrots, and finish the meal with a quick lemon mousse (to keep up the yellow theme, of course!).

Curry Ground Beef Stroganoff Ingredients
- Sour cream – I like a good full fat sour cream for this recipe, but if you’re counting calories low fat will work too. Don’t use fat free though as it will give the recipe a grainy texture.
- Minced garlic – You can totally mince your own garlic, but if you want to make it easy on yourself, it’s okay to use pre-chopped!
- Sweet bell pepper – I like to keep a bag of chopped sweet peppers in my freezer for just such occasions like this. The recipe comes together so quickly if you don’t have much time in the evening! If you’re not rushed for time then go ahead and use fresh produce.
- Onion – I also keep a bag of frozen chopped sweet onion in the freezer. This recipe works well with both white onion and sweet onion. I prefer not to use red as it muddies the color.
- Tomatoes – Canned tomatoes work great in this recipe. I like the petite diced ones. Again if you’re looking to spend more time in the kitchen, then fresh tomatoes are great as well!
- Mushrooms – I’m sure you see a theme here, but a can of mushrooms or frozen mushrooms are perfect for this curry recipe. You’re always welcome to use fresh.
- Yellow curry powder – Yellow curry powder is a flavor often found in the Caribbean islands and is heavily inspired by Indian curry. It is incredibly flavorful and very delicious. It is not spicy unless you specifically purchase a spicy curry powder.
- Ground beef – Any type of ground beef is fine – you could even mix it up with ground chicken, turkey, or even lamb! Make sure to drain off any excess fat before adding it to this recipe.
- Egg noodles – You can buy them at the market or use our recipe for easy homemade egg noodles!

Egg noodles are great in a variety of recipes (although if we’re being honest, my kids would be perfectly happy eating them with a little butter and salt!). You can buy them at the market (either dried in the pasta aisle or frozen) or you can make them at home with our easy egg noodles recipe! (Seriously, SO easy!).

What to Serve with Curry Ground Beef Stroganoff
Our Curry Ground Beef Stroganoff is truly a full meal in itself with the meat, veggies, and Reames Frozen Egg Noodles, but if you want to pair it with more dishes or a simple dessert, here are some great ideas!
Tools for Making Ground Beef Stroganoff
- Large deep skillet – I like to use my 15 inch cast iron skillet so I know there’s plenty of room, but a 12 in skillet will work too, just make sure it has high sides.
- Medium/Large pot – Big enough to boil water and cook the egg noodles.
- Spatula – Something to stir your noodles, I’m a huge fan of wooden spatulas and wooden spoons.

April, what can we use instead of Curry….no one here cares for curry. It looks delicious but we don’t do curry anything. Thanks.

Can I use cream of chicken soup in place of some sour cream? I don’t have enough.
April Woods says
I think that would work. It will be less tangy, but still delicious 🙂
