Carrie's Speedy Beef Stroganoff with Poppy Noodles

Another "borrowed" recipe, this time from Carrie on TK. By far the best beef stroganoff recipe I've tried.

1 lb beef sirloin, cut into narrow strips (if you have time, pop it in the freezer for 40 min 1 hour first, makes cutting the meat so much more simple)
1 tbs olive oil (canola oil or what you have on hand would do just fine)
1 med. onion, sliced thin
1 - 2 clove garlic, minced
1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 cup sour cream (we use light and it works just fine)
1/2 - 1 cup fresh sliced mushrooms (depends upon how much you like mushrooms, I use a cup. Since they are large it is easy for the kids to pick out if they so like)
2 tbs catsup
2 tsp worcestershire sauce

In skillet or chef pan, brown meat strips in hot oil. Add onion, mushrooms and garlic; cook until onion is crisp-tender. Combine soup, sour cream, mushrooms, catsup, and worcestershire; pour over meat and stir. Cook and stir over low heat until hot. Keep warm over hot water (or just on simmer with lid on is what I have always done). Serve overPoppy Noodles Cook egg noodles following directions on package. Once drained add 1 tbs butter and 1 tsp poppy seeds. Serve meat mixture over poppy noodles on platter.
