Chef Jenn's Tips
- Temper the sour cream before adding it to the hot gravy. Do this by mixing some HOT gravy into the sour cream to raise the temperature, then add the sour cream to the rest of the dish. This will reduce the chances of it curdling.
- Have everything prepped and ready to go before making this recipe. It cooks so quickly that you won't have much time to chop once it starts cooking.
What To Serve With This Leftover Beef Recipe
Some of my favorite sides include egg noodles, white rice, and mashed potatoes. The sauce is AMAZING so you want to make sure you've got something neutral in flavor to soak it all up.
I love serving this dish with a nice green veggie, too, like steamed broccoli or asparagus.
Suggested Variations
- Try the earthy flavor of wild mushrooms with this meaty dish, instead of white cultivated mushrooms.
- Add a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to add another layer of flavor
- Try leftover pot roast beef stroganoff! Yes, the leftover pot roast will work well in this recipe, and you can add any leftover gravy to the sauce.
- Make this recipe with leftover smoked roast beef for even more intense flavor!
How To Store This Leftover Roast Beef Stroganoff Recipe
This leftover beef stroganoff will keep well in the fridge for a day or two, but take into consideration the age of the leftover roast beef. If you've already had the beef in the fridge for a week, I'd freeze any leftovers.
This recipe will freeze fine – just make sure to package it with lots of sauce and heat it gently on the stovetop to reheat it.
