Bring a #large pot{} of water to a boil and season with @salt{1%tsp}. Wash and dry produce. Trim and thinly slice @button mushrooms{8%oz} (skip if your mushrooms are pre-sliced!). Trim and thinly slice @scallions{4%unit}, separating whites from greens.

Once water is boiling, add @cavatappi pasta{12%oz} to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente ~{11%minutes}. Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water (2 cups for 4 servings), then drain with a #strainer{}.

While pasta cooks, heat a drizzle of @cooking oil{2%tsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add @fully cooked beef meatballs{} and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides and warmed through ~{5%minutes}. Season with salt and @black pepper{1%tsp}. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan and let cool ~{1%minutes}.

Heat a drizzle of cooking oil in the pan used for meatballs over medium-high heat. Add button mushrooms and scallion whites; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender ~{7%minutes}. Stir in 1 TBSP (2 TBSP for 4 servings) @butter{2%tbsp}, @flour{2%tbsp}, and @fry seasoning{2%tbsp}; cook, stirring constantly, until flour is incorporated and golden ~{2%minutes}. Stir in 2/3 cup reserved pasta cooking water (1 cup for 4), @beef stock concentrate{2%unit}, and @sour cream{6%tbsp} (if pasta isn't done, ladle cooking water directly from pot). Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened ~{1%minutes}. TIP: If sauce seems too thick, stir in more reserved pasta cooking water a splash at a time.

Add drained cavatappi pasta and meatballs to the pan with sauce; toss to evenly coat.

Divide meatball stroganoff between bowls; top with scallion greens. Serve.
