Recipe instructions

Step 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 sauce 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.

Step 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.

Step 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.

Step 4

Step 4
Fry the onion until golden brown. On medium heat it takes about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

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

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.

Step 9

Pour water and flour into the pan.

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.

Step 11

Step 11
Add sour cream. Sour cream can also be replaced with cream of any fat content.

Step 12
