Creamy Mushroom Sauce

This is a sauce I whipped up on the fly to accompany my German potato dumplings, Knödel. Again, quantities will not be exact, but taste and adjust according to flavor and consistency. 

Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add in half an onion, finely chopped, and 2 cups thinly sliced mushrooms (any kind will do but chanterelles or wild are the best). Sweat these until softened and translucent, then add in some cream to cover. Reduce it down and add some pommery mustard, Maggi, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Add more cream as needed and keep reducing down to desired consistency, then adjust seasonings.

You did not forget the Maggi, good girl!! Sounds very tasty, though I heard you skip the cream these days.. Cheers, Regina
