How to Make Slow Cooker Yumasetti
Start by lightly greasing the inside of a 5–6 quart slow cooker to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
Crumble the raw ground beef evenly across the bottom of the slow cooker. Breaking it into small pieces helps it cook more evenly as the casserole simmers.
In a bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup and beef broth until the mixture becomes smooth and pourable. Pour this sauce evenly over the raw beef in the slow cooker. Allow the mixture to remain layered rather than stirring immediately.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for about 2 to 2½ hours, or on LOW for about 4 hours, until the beef is fully cooked and the mixture is bubbling gently.
Once the beef is cooked, stir the mixture to combine the meat and sauce. Add salt and pepper if needed.
Next, stir in the uncooked egg noodles, pressing them gently into the liquid so they soften evenly while cooking.
Cover the slow cooker again and cook on HIGH for 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender.
Once the noodles are ready, reduce the heat to LOW or the warm setting. Stir in the sour cream until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy, then sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Allow the cheese to melt for about 5–10 minutes before serving.
