You, too can make this and appear to be a rock star. This dish is ridiculously easy and reminds me of how a few simple ingredients can really be all you need. In a saucepan:
- One container of sliced mushrooms (crimini for more flavor but I'm not sure it would matter either way)
- one small onion chopped
- 1/4 cube butter
Bring this in a saucepan to a mushy mess (five minutes??) and add two tablespoons of flour (stir it in!!!), a cup of low-fat sour cream, a few squirts of lemon, a tablespoon or so of parsley and a shake or two of salt and pepper. Here we would say "salt and pepper to taste" but to be really clear, you will need to first taste your dish, then add a shake of salt, then taste again. And don't go crazy. Stir and taste and add and repeat. Like a tango in your kitchen. And definitely note that we'll be adding a lot of parmesean cheese over the top of this and stick it in the oven. This means a lot more salt will be added, as parmesean cheese is a very salty one! So be super careful with seasoning.
I can tell you that its going to be smelling quite good. So don't eat yet though. This entire process took hopefully ten minutes right? Now that you have reduced the mixture on the stove and added the key ingredients, you will transfer this from the saucepan into something that may look like a serving dish and be appropriate to be put into the oven. A Corian bowl or something. Sprinkle a generous amount of parmesean cheese over your mixture. Cook for 15 minutes. And serve with thinly sliced bread or crackers. The key versatility perk here is that you could take this from the saucepan to a "holding pattern" (fridge, car, whatever) for a few HOURS and then stick it in the oven for 15 to serve as a hot dip. I recommend for holiday parties and for fun. Plus with low-fat ingredients and all, this is not that bad for you. Not that you'd ever know........
