Mushroom Stroganoff

    Ingredients

    • 1 tbs olive oil
    • ½ onion, finely chopped
    • 2 tsp smoked (sweet) paprika
    • 400g button mushrooms, quartered
    • 200g crème fraiche (or sour cream)
    • 2-3 tbs chicken or vegetable stock
    • Small knob of butter, about 20g
    • 4 small gherkins, sliced
    • Handful of parsley, roughly chopped
    • Cooked white rice or fettucine to serve

    Method

    1. Heat oil in a heavy-based frying pan over moderate heat. Add onions and sauté without colouring for 5 minutes.
    2. Add paprika and mushrooms and cook 4-5 minutes until mushrooms soften.
    3. Stir in crème fraiche, stock, butter and three-quarters of the chopped gherkins. Bubble gently for a few minutes until the sauce has melted together. Season to taste with salt and freshly cracked pepper.
    4. Take off heat and scatter with the parsley and remaining sliced gherkins and serve immediately, with fluffy white rice or buttered fettucine.
