Beef and Noodles is a classic and traditional recipe that I have made over the years. However, making the recipe in the Instant Pot has forever changed the way I cook beef stroganoff. In under 30 minutes, you can have this recipe prepped, cooked & served.

How to Make
- Turn Instant Pot to sauté mode. Sauté butter and onions until translucent.
- Add spices, garlic, and ground beef. Cook until browned.
- Stir in flour.
- On top of the meat, layer mixed veggies, mushrooms, and pour in beef broth.
- Place the lid onto the instant pot, making sure the valve is set to seal.
- Set the cooking time on the pressure cooker for 8 minutes and cook on high pressure.
- Quick release for more firm noodles, or do a natural release for softer egg noodles.
- Gently stir in Worcestershire sauce, cooked pasta, and Greek yogurt.
- Serve immediately.
**Video Notes: This recipe has been modified to be gluten-free. The instructions were modified to cook the gluten-free pasta on the stove-top rather than in the instant pot then added to preserve the integrity of the gluten-free pasta.

Start by turning on the sauté mode on your Instant Pot. Then add butter and onions. Cook until the onions are translucent.
Next, add the spices and mix with the onions and butter. After many recipe attempts, I have found that ground mustard, minced garlic, salt, and ground black pepper is the perfect flavor combination.
KITCHEN TIP: If you love the garlic flavor but dislike mincing garlic, buy jarred minced garlic or substitute with garlic powder.
Next, add in the ground beef and stir until browned. I buy lean ground beef to keep this recipe budget-friendly. However, the following could be swapped for the ground beef:
- Chuck roast
- Beef tenderloin
- Top Sirloin
Once the meat is browned, add the flour and stir.
PRO TIP: The flour will combine with the beef stock to thicken the sauce and make the dish more creamy.
Make this recipe gluten-free by using cornstarch instead of flour to thicken the stew. You will want to make a “cornstarch slurry“, which is cornstarch mixed with cold water or broth before adding to the hot liquid so the cornstarch doesn’t clump.
Time to layer the remaining ingredients on top of the meat mixture!

Add the Instant Pot lid & secure. Make sure the valve is set to SEALED and cook on high pressure for 8 minutes.
After the time is up, gently stir in the cooked pasta.

Gently stir in Worcestershire sauce, Greek yogurt, and cooked pasta. Typically, sour cream will be used but I have found that Greek yogurt makes the dish more flavorful. Using a full-fat Greek yogurt will make the dish extra creamy – highly recommend!

How To Make in the Crockpot
- Sauté butter and onions on the stove until translucent.

- Pour in beef broth.
- Cook on low for 4-6 hours or high for 2-4 hours.
- Stir in Worcestershire sauce and Greek yogurt.
- Serve immediately.

Could I use regular pasta noodles instead? Looks amazing.
