# Steps to Follow:
01 -
On the sauté setting of the Instant Pot, cook and crumble ground beef over medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes until browned. Drain excess grease if more than a few tablespoons remain.
02 -
Stir in the chopped yellow onion, nutmeg, paprika, salt, and pepper. Continue to sauté until onions become translucent, approximately 2 minutes.
03 -
Add minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Stir to combine and sauté for an additional 2 minutes to develop flavors.
04 -
Pour in beef broth and cream of mushroom soup. Add egg noodles and stir gently to evenly distribute all ingredients.
05 -
Seal the Instant Pot and set to high pressure for 14 minutes. Allow a natural pressure release for 5 minutes, then manually quick release the remaining pressure.
06 -
Open the pot and fold in the sour cream until fully incorporated and creamy.
07 -
Optionally, sprinkle fresh thyme over the dish before serving for a fragrant finish.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Use lean ground beef (80/20 or 85/15) to minimize grease while retaining flavor.
02 -
Fresh thyme can be substituted with 1 teaspoon dried thyme or omitted entirely.
03 -
Any smaller noodle variety may be used if substituting for egg noodles in equal quantity.
04 -
This dish can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
05 -
To prepare on stovetop: brown meat with onions and garlic, drain grease, stir in remaining ingredients except noodles, cook noodles separately, then combine and serve.
