Mushrooms in Sour Cream Sauce Recipe

Ingredients:

  • Mushrooms: 500g (any variety, such as cremini or button), sliced
  • Onion: 1 medium, finely chopped
  • Garlic: 2 cloves, minced
  • Butter: 2 tablespoons
  • Sour Cream: 200g (about 1 cup)
  • Vegetable or Chicken Broth: 1/2 cup (or water)
  • Thyme: 1 teaspoon (optional)
  • Salt: to taste
  • Pepper: to taste
  • Fresh Parsley: for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Sauté the Onions:

    • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
    • Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.
  2. Add the Mushrooms:

    • Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and their moisture has evaporated.
  3. Add Garlic and Thyme:

    • Add the minced garlic and thyme (if using) to the skillet and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  4. Add Broth:

    • Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly.
  5. Stir in Sour Cream:

    • Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream until well combined. Allow the mixture to heat through but do not boil, as this can cause the sour cream to curdle.
  6. Season:

    • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the consistency with more broth or water if needed.
  7. Serve:

    • Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm over rice, pasta, or with crusty bread.

Tips:

  • For added flavor, consider incorporating other herbs like dill or chives.
  • You can add a splash of white wine before adding the broth for an extra depth of flavor.
