This mushroom ragout is a light but nutritious dish which goes back a long time into the Romanian cuisine. Back then the Wallachians used to pick the wild mushrooms from the forest themselves, however we cooked here with champignons and it turned out perfect.
To cook for two people you will need 300 g of mushrooms, one medium sized onion, 3-4 cloves of garlic, one spoon of chopped dill, 70 ml of milk and a tablespoon of flour.
Chop and fry the onion together with the garlic at medium-low temperature. You just need to cook until the onion becomes transparent, not more.
Then add the chopped mushrooms and cover the pan. Cook for about 5-10 minutes, you will notice the mushrooms shrink a bit and produce some juices.
At this point you can add half of the dill and some more coarsely chopped garlic.
Slowly mix the flour into the milk until all the lumps are gone and pour it into the pan. Mix well and let everything boil for 5 minutes. Alternatively you could use sour cream instead of milk, the purpose being to have a thickening for the ragout.
The dish should be served with polenta and decorated with fresh dill. Enjoy!
