Mushrooms in Sour Cream Sauce
Mushrooms in Sour Cream Sauce
This recipe comes from a good friend and this is common in Russian cooking and served as a side dish, and it is delicious! Link to the Shortcut is listed in the Notes section.
Ingredients
- 500 grams button mushrooms, (1 lb)
- 1 medium onion, finely diced
- 3 tablespoons extra light olive oil
- 5 tablespoons sour cream
- salt and pepper, as desired
- 1 spring onion, sliced for garnish, optional
Instructions
- First we need to prep the ingredients. Finely dice the onion and slice the mushrooms thick, about 1/4 inch thick. And thinly slice the spring onion as well if you are going to use that.
- Heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil in a non stick pan on medium heat, when hot, add the onion, cook, stirring them, until softened and starting to get golden brown.
- Pour the onions and any oil, into a bowl and set that aside.
- Add another 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil to the same pan, when hot, add the mushrooms.
- Saute the mushrooms until starting to lightly brown, they will be soft, and release their water.
- When the mushrooms are ready, drain most of the liquid in the pan, leaving just a little liquid in the pan. Add the onion and sour cream, season as desired with salt and pepper. Stir everything together and heat through then remove from heat.
- Place in a serving bowl, sprinkle with spring onion, serve as a side with any meal, and enjoy.
Notes
Shortcut: Sour Cream.
Variants: 1. For Asia, use Straw Mushrooms sliced in half lengthwise. 2. Feel free to use cremini or baby bella mushrooms in place of white button. 3. Use an equal amount of whipping cream (heavy cream) in place of sour cream and sprinkle with some cornstarch to thicken.

I made this on 2 July 2019, and divided the recipe as stated to make two batches, one batch as written, and the other batch I used whipping cream in place of sour cream, and I thickened that with a good sprinkle of corn starch.
Overall results, both versions are delicious, the sour cream just giving a bit more tang than the whipping cream.
