Recipe: Beef Stroganoff Potatoes
This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.
First you saute beef tips – I used my Farberware pan – it’s perfect for things like this.
This recipe called for beef broth and cornstarch – I took half of the broth and heated it up in the microwave and then whisked in the cornstarch.
Then you add the beef, cornstarch/broth and the rest of the broth into the mushroom mixture. Stir until it’s all mixed together and the liquid thickens up a bit. Then you remove from the heat and add plain yogurt to make it creamier.
Then serve over potatoes! I cooked up some Yukon gold potatoes as opposed to the Russets mentioned in the recipe.
This recipe was definitely simple and under 400 calories – how can you go wrong?!

- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, mushrooms and garlic, stirring occasionally and cooking until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, heat 1/2 cup of the broth in the microwave and whisk in the cornstarch. Once the mushroom mixture is finished cooking, Add the cooked beef, beef broth, and cornstarch mixture. Heat for about 5 minutes, until the beef is warmed through. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the yogurt. Season with pepper. Return the skillet to the heat and cook over low heat for about 5 minutes.
- Cut potatoes open and mash the flesh so that it is soft. Ladle the beef and mushroom mixture over the potatoes and serve.
