Instructions
-
Melt the Butter: In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the chopped green onions and sauté until they become slightly translucent, releasing their fragrant aroma.
-
Cook the Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and have released their moisture.
-
Incorporate the Thickener: Sprinkle in the flour or soup powder, stirring well to combine, and cook for about one minute to remove any raw taste.
-
Add the Cream: Gradually pour in the whipping cream while stirring constantly to ensure a smooth mixture.
-
Simmer for Consistency: Allow the sauce to simmer gently, cooking until it thickens to a consistency resembling sour cream. If desired, stir in the optional cheese and dill for added flavor during this step.
-
Season: Finally, season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting according to your preference.
Serve this creamy mushroom sauce over pasta, grilled chicken, or as a delightful topping for baked potatoes. Enjoy the ultimate comfort of homemade flavor in every bite!
