Odessa Style Mushrooms
A dish of baked mushrooms & onions - contributed by Kathy Westburg
  • ¼ C. unsalted butter at room temperature
  • ½ medium onion OR 4 scallions finely chopped
  • 1 lb. field or brown mushrooms, whole or sliced – Portabella mushrooms work well
  • 1 T. flour
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • ½ C. sour cream
  • 1/3 C. heavy cream
  • ½ C. grated hard cheese – Parmesan or Romano will do
Melt ½ of the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté briefly, then stir in the mushrooms and cook for about 5 to 6 minutes.

In a small bowl, combine 1 T. of the butter with the flour, working it to make a paste ball. Stir the butter ball into the mushrooms and cook for 3 minutes, or until thickened. Season to taste, and stir in the sour cream and heavy cream.

Preheat the oven to 350º F. Pour the mushroom mixture into a serving dish, sprinkle to the top with the grated cheese and dot with the remaining butter.

Bake 20 to 25 minutes until bubbly.
