Awesome recipe. The family loved it. I used button mushrooms but will try with the portobellos next time. No leftovers as son ate all that was left.

I've been missing stroganoff since I'm mostly vegan now and this is excellent! It's now in our regular dinner rotation - thank you!

In reply to Cole. Hi Cole, thank you for such a thoughtful message. It made my day! I'm so happy that you liked the recipe and the modifications worked well. Btw, I guess I'm not 'right in the head' either! Thank you for being so compassionate to our animal friends. We need more people like you in the world. :)

In reply to Teresa Arora. Hi Teresa, Yes, you can use a cooking cream. You may need to cook it down a few minutes longer depending on its thickness. Instead of flour, you can use cornstarch slurry. Mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with water and add it to the simmering sauce. Gently simmer until it thickens. :)

Could I use vegan cooking cream instead of sour cream for this recipe? And is the flour absolutely necessary as I’m trying to eliminate flour from my diet completely?

Oh Melissa, thank you for this perfectly wonderful recipe! I am a vegan going on 10 years now and the ONLY dish I really missed was Stroganoff. I had tried years ago to make it using plant based crumbles and almond milk...for those who wonder, no, it wasn’t good, this here is the recipe.
I did make my own “sour cream” using sunflower kernels, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, salt and water. Because of the lemon juice already in the sour cream, I skipped adding it at the end. I also cooked the sauce differently, keeping the mushrooms out of it as it cooked. I then cooked them on their own with olive oil and a little garlic and onion salt. I combined them with the sauce and let them come together for a few minutes. I added it to the noodles and I swear, a hush fell over the land. Delicious! So good I just stood right there and fork fed myself.
I am very content right now.

As a vegan who makes everything he eats, I am so grateful to you. You’ve expanded my repertoire!

You know, where I live, people don’t think vegans are right in the head. And maybe they’re right. I don’t know much really, but if eating something that loved its mother is “right in the head”, I just as soon be doolally.

Forgive the length of this. Thank you for being you.

Thank you for a very interesting recipe!
But stroganoff typically contains tomato paste, and I am tempted to add one tablespoon to this recipe. Have you (or anyone else) ever tried this addition?
