Ingredients
1 pound mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
12 ounces sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried dill)
salt to taste
black pepper to taste
Directions
Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until it becomes translucent and softened, about 5 minutes—do not allow it to brown.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook, stirring gently, for about 3 minutes until they begin to release their moisture and absorb the butter.
Pour the sour cream into the pan and stir in the fresh or dried dill until well combined. Season the mixture generously with salt and pepper to your taste.
Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture just to a boil, then immediately reduce the heat to low and simmer gently for 1 minute to heat through. Serve warm.
Comments
Every ingredient is a staple at any Charlotte grocer, and mushrooms, butter, onion, sour cream, and dill run about $8–10 total for a solid side dish at roughly $2–2.50 per serving. The 20-minute claim is honest: mushrooms take 10–12 minutes to soften and brown, leaving time for the sour cream to warm through without a real risk of curdling if you keep heat moderate. This is a weeknight workhorse that reheats decently in a low oven or on the stovetop, though the cream will thin slightly. It's not fussy and feeds four as a side, but the dish relies on fresh dill for its character, and grocery-store dill can wilt fast, so use it the same day you buy it.
