Mushroom sauce from champignon mushrooms with sour cream

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make mushroom sauce from champignon mushrooms with sour cream? Take fresh mushrooms: for champignons, an indicator of the freshness of mushrooms is their pure white color and elasticity. Of course, such a gravy can be prepared from any mushrooms, and even from frozen ones (just defrost them first and drain the excess liquid). Make sure that the oil is refined oil.

2. STEP 2

   

   Peel the onion and cut into small cubes. The size of the cubes depends on the desired consistency of the finished gravy. Some people like it to have a good bite of onion and mushroom pieces, while others prefer a smoother, sauce-like texture.

3. STEP 3

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan, add onion. I remind you that in order for the oil not to burn, it must be refined.

4. STEP 4

   

   Fry the onion until golden brown. On medium heat it takes about 5-7 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Meanwhile, wash the champignons. Pay more attention to this process to wash off all the sand that is often found under the cap. Dry the mushrooms and cut into cubes. The size of the cubes is also up to your taste.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add the chopped mushrooms to the pan with the onions.

7. STEP 7

   

   Add a little salt. Salt will help remove excess moisture from the mushrooms. Fry the mushrooms over medium heat for about 7-10 minutes until the moisture has completely evaporated and is golden brown.

8. STEP 8

   

   Meanwhile, dissolve flour in 150 ml of water. Stir thoroughly so that there are no lumps. Flour is needed here for thickening and, in principle, it can be replaced with starch.

9. STEP 9

   

   Pour water and flour into the pan.

10. STEP 10

    

    At this stage, you can add your favorite seasonings to the gravy: some people like ground pepper, while others prefer ground garlic. Focus on your taste. Boil for 3-4 minutes. The gravy will thicken quickly.

11. STEP 11

    

    Add sour cream. Sour cream can also be replaced with cream of any fat content.

12. STEP 12

    

    If you added sour cream, then stir the gravy and remove from the heat. If you added cream, then bring it to a boil and remove from the heat.

13. STEP 13

    

    Serve this sauce with any side dish: it goes well with rice, buckwheat and pasta. Bon appetit!

I was sorting out my frozen supplies and found a bag of chopped champignons. The find came in handy, and I immediately prepared mushroom sauce from champignon mushrooms with sour cream. Moreover, you need a minimum of products for this. First I fried the onions and then added frozen mushrooms to the pan. The champignons defrosted rather quickly and juice appeared. Just during this time, the mushrooms were already ready, all that remained was to fry them until they got a golden crust. On the author's advice, I replaced the flour with potato starch and diluted it with water. The gravy thickened instantly; I only had time to add paprika and ground pepper. Immediately added sour cream to the pan, stirred and removed from the heat. The mushroom sauce turned out thick, but that's exactly what I needed. Because I served it as an appetizer on pieces of loaf. This is delicious! Champignons and sour cream go well together. They turned out tender, creamy, but with their own characteristic taste.
