How to Make Sherried Mushroom Sauce

1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 pound of sliced cremini mushrooms, 1/2 cup chopped onion, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until mushrooms are softened and lightly browned.
2. Sprinkle in 1/4 cup cake flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
3. In a separate saucepan, heat 1 cup of beef or chicken stock and 1/4 cup dry sherry. Gradually whisk the hot stock mixture into the mushroom mixture, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
4. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
5. Stir in 1/2 cup sour cream and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
6. Serve immediately over your favorite red meat or pork dish.
