Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Button mushrooms (or mixed wild mushrooms)
- 60 g Butter
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 150 ml Heavy cream
- 75 ml Sour cream
- 1 tbsp All-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp Fresh dill, finely chopped
- 1 tsp Paprika (sweet)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper, freshly ground
- 100 ml Vegetable or chicken stock
- 1 tbsp Neutral oil (such as sunflower oil)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth or brushing off any dirt. Slice them thinly and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the butter and oil over medium heat until melted and bubbly.
Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and begin to brown.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the mushrooms and stir well, cooking for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Slowly pour in the vegetable or chicken stock, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the mixture begins to thicken.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream and sour cream. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the mushrooms.
Season the mixture with paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the fresh dill and cook for 1 more minute to combine the flavors.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Remove the skillet from heat.
Serve the creamed mushrooms warm, either as a side dish or spooned over hearty bread, dumplings, or mashed potatoes.
