Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Melt the butter in a wide pan over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Add the onion and cook, stirring, until soft and translucent, 4-5 min.

  3. 3

    Add the mushrooms and the salt. Cook over medium-high heat until their liquid has evaporated and they are golden, 8-10 min.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir for 1 min so it loses its raw smell.

  5. 5

    Pour in the stock a little at a time, stirring so no lumps form.

  6. 6

    Simmer over low heat until the sauce thickens, 4-5 min.

  7. 7

    Turn the heat to its lowest setting and stir in the sour cream. Warm for 2-3 min without letting it boil, or it may split.

  8. 8

    Season with pepper, taste for salt and stir in the dill.

  9. 9

    Serve hot over meat or dumplings.
