2 cups beef broth
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 cup sour cream
2 tbsp flour
Egg noodles for serving

Instructions

Brown the Beef: Set your Instant Pot to sauté mode. Brown the beef cubes for 3-4 minutes until golden. This step locks in flavor!
Add Veggies and Broth: Add the diced onions, sliced mushrooms, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine.
Pressure Cook: Close the lid and pressure cook on high for 35 minutes. Let the Instant Pot do its magic!
Natural Release: Allow the pressure to release naturally for about 10 minutes. Then open the lid carefully.
Thicken the Sauce: Mix the flour with a bit of water to make a slurry. Stir it into the pot along with the sour cream and Dijon mustard. Cook on sauté mode for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and turns creamy.
