Welcome back to Cooking to with Cass! My name is Cassem Aossey, and today we're making one of my dad's favorite foods: Hearty Beef and Noodles!

This recipe is great because with one more ingredient you can have a simple beef stroganoff, simply add 1/2 cup of sour cream and that's it. All in all this recipe is made to amplify the flavor of Midamar's Halal Beef Stew meat. The mushrooms and Worcestershire sauce take the delicious flavor of our Halal beef stew meat add hints of extra umami that boost the flavor that takes a good dish and makes it great. Not to mention, this recipe only takes 30 minutes to make!
