Ingredients

• 1 ½ pounds raw ground beef (80–85% lean)
• 1 can (10.5 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup
• 2 cups beef broth (or water plus bouillon)
• 8 ounces uncooked wide egg noodles
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

 

How to Make Amish Yumasetti

1. Prepare the slow cooker.
Lightly spray a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray or rub it with a little oil.

2. Add the beef.
Crumble the raw ground beef evenly across the bottom of the slow cooker.

3. Make the sauce.
Whisk together the cream of mushroom soup and beef broth until mostly smooth.

4. Add the sauce.
Pour the soup mixture over the ground beef. Do not stir at this stage.

5. Cook the beef.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 2 to 2½ hours or LOW for about 4 hours, until the beef is cooked through and the mixture is hot.

6. Stir the beef.
Stir well, breaking up any larger pieces of ground beef. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.

7. Add the noodles.
Stir in the uncooked egg noodles, pressing them gently into the liquid so they are mostly covered.

8. Cook the noodles.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 20–30 minutes, until the noodles are tender. Stir once or twice during cooking and press down any noodles that remain above the liquid.

9. Add sour cream and cheese.
Turn the slow cooker to LOW or KEEP WARM. Stir in the sour cream until creamy, then sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top.

10. Melt and serve.
Cover for 5–10 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Serve hot with a good mixture of beef, noodles, and creamy sauce.

 

Helpful Tips

Keep an eye on the noodles because slow cookers can vary. They should be tender but not overly soft.

If the casserole becomes too thick after cooking, stir in a small splash of broth or milk before serving.

For a more blended casserole, gently stir the melted cheese into the noodles and beef. If you prefer, you can leave the cheese melted on top.

 

Storage

Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently with a splash of broth or milk to loosen the sauce.
