How to cook fried champignons with onions in a frying pan

If you bought champignons in a supermarket, you need to use a sharp knife to peel the flesh under the cap and remove dirt and black spots. Then place in a colander and rinse very quickly (no more than 1 second) under running water, and then let drain well.

Now cut the mushrooms. Fried champignons will be tastier if the mushrooms are cut larger. I usually cut them in half lengthwise and then cut each half into several pieces if the mushrooms are medium-sized (the cap is 2 to 3 cm in diameter). Small specimens, up to 2 cm, need not be cut at all, but large ones should be cut like this: first cut off the stem, then cut the cap in half and divide each half into 3 parts. I do not recommend cutting the champignons into slices; the mushroom flavor will be lost from them. It is important that all the pieces are approximately equal in size - this will help prepare the food efficiently and quickly.

When the mushrooms are prepared, let's move on to the onions. Let's cut it not too finely, preferably into halves of rings or 1/4. Heat a frying pan with vegetable oil, while the heat should be medium, sauté the cooked onion in it until golden brown. We don’t need it to be completely ready, it’s enough that light brown stripes just begin to appear on it. It will take no more than 2 minutes.

Now add the mushrooms. They contain salt and seasoning for mushroom dishes. Mix thoroughly and fry over medium heat. Stir every 3 minutes.

During the frying process, quite a lot of liquid will be released. There is no need to cover the pan with a lid, because we want the liquid to evaporate.

Fry until all the moisture is gone, usually no more than 10 minutes. Then you need a few more minutes (2-3) to fry the champignons until golden brown. At the end of cooking, you can add a couple of chopped garlic cloves if you wish. After squeezing it through the press, mix the mushrooms thoroughly.

This is a simple and quick recipe for fried champignons with onions. All that remains is to figure out what side dish you will serve this dish with.

Get your notebook of recipes ready, today I will talk about how to fry champignons in a frying pan.

Preparing mushrooms for frying

So, we brought fresh champignons from the store. What's next?

First, they must be quickly rinsed under running water and allowed to drain. Better yet, dry it gently with a paper towel. Because mushrooms absorb excess liquid very quickly and then their flesh becomes watery. By the way, this is why the most “advanced” chefs advise not to wash the champignons, but to peel the top layer from the caps using a small knife with a thin blade.

Now the mushrooms need to be chopped. First we separate the leg. If the champignons are large, cut the leg into two or three transverse pieces, and the cap in half, and the halves into slices. If the mushrooms are small, you don’t have to cut the stem, but simply divide the caps into quarters. Primary processing is completed.

Now let's find out how to fry champignons in a frying pan with sour cream.

Mushrooms with sour cream - a classic combination

The taste of mushrooms in itself is so subtle, original and rich that complex additives only spoil mushroom dishes. But the combination of mushrooms with sour cream or cream is so successful that it has long become a classic.

For this recipe we will need products according to this simple list:

• fresh champignons – half a kilo;
• onion – 1 pc.;
• sour cream – approximately 100 g, a little more is possible;
• salt - to taste;

1. Finely chop the onion. The smaller the onion cubes, the tastier the dish will be. But! You must chop the onion with a knife, not in a food processor.
2. In a deep frying pan (we use a frying pan with a ceramic coating), heat two or three tablespoons of oil (use whichever you like best). And fry the onion until golden brown.
3. Add chopped mushrooms to the onions. First, they will release a certain amount of liquid, and the mushroom pieces will become noticeably smaller. Then the liquid will evaporate and the champignons will begin to fry. Remember to stir occasionally so that everything cooks evenly.
4. Add salt and pepper to the mushrooms that have begun to fry, stir, and pour in sour cream. Cover the pan with a lid and let the sour cream boil.
5. In principle, our fried champignons with sour cream are already ready and can be served. You can make small additions to make the dish more sophisticated. For example, sprinkle with grated cheese, it will melt in sour cream and the taste will be simply divine. Or pour in a quarter glass of dry white wine, let it bubble a little under the lid - and now you have magnificent French “champignon-a-creme” ready to serve. Enjoy!

The important subtlety of an elementarily simple dish

It would seem, well, what subtleties can there be in such a simple task as frying champignons in a frying pan with onions. But there is. Especially if you adhere to the principles of proper nutrition and avoid extra calories. For a low-calorie diet, vegetables are mainly steamed, and meat, poultry and fish are grilled. What about mushrooms? Is it possible to cook them with minimal addition of oil?

Maybe. Let's use a Chinese frying pan - wok. The wok has a very advantageous shape - a deep round bowl. What would require two to three tablespoons of oil for frying in a regular frying pan will cost you one teaspoon in a wok. This is Eastern wisdom.

• fresh champignons – 0.5 kg;
• onions – 2 heads;
• salt - to taste;
• ground black pepper - to taste;

Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a wok.

1. We clean the onion, cut it into quarter rings and throw it into the wok. Fry until golden brown.
2. We divide the washed and dried champignons into stems and caps, cut them into thick strips if possible and add them to the onion.
3. Stirring, wait until the juice evaporates and the mushrooms begin to fry.
4. Fry pieces of mushrooms with onions, constantly stirring everything with a spatula from bottom to top, like a seasoned Chinese chef.

You can serve champignons fried in this way with onions either on their own or as a side dish for grilled meat.

Champignons “in a simple way”

And finally, the most “native” recipe: how to fry champignons in a frying pan with potatoes. There are no frills in this recipe, but it is the most satisfying. Without potatoes - nowhere!

• champignons – half a kilo;
• onion – 1 head;
• potatoes – 400 gr.;
• salt;
• pepper.

1. Wash the champignons, cut into slices, fry with onions, put in another bowl.
2. We peel the potatoes, wash them, cut them as usual for frying and fry them in the pan where the mushrooms were cooked.
3. When the potatoes are almost ready, add mushrooms and onions to them and fry them together for a while.
4. Place on a plate, sprinkle with your favorite herbs and serve.

How to cook champignons in a frying pan, tasty and preferably in a hurry - this is the question that each of us has asked at one time or another. Due to the fact that champignons are not only financially accessible mushrooms, they are also available on the shelves of shops and markets all year round. These two factors have led to the fact that online you can find a wide variety of dishes in which champignons are the main ingredient.

Selection and preparation of champignons for frying

Cooking any dish always begins with the selection and purchase of basic products. When you choose champignons, I advise you to pay attention to the following points:

• appearance (mushrooms should be fresh without dark spots on the cap and stem; good champignons are pure white, sometimes with a pink or beige tint);
• color (fresh mushrooms at the place where the cap is cut are pink, if you notice dark shades closer to black, don’t hesitate to throw such a product in the trash);
• elasticity (when you lightly press the cap with your finger, it should restore its original shape);
• smell (neutral smell is good, but ammonia or foulbrood smell is bad).

How to clean champignons

The first stage of cooking fried champignons begins with cleaning the mushrooms. Depending on the size and freshness of the champignons, they are cleaned in different ways:

• It is enough to brush fresh small mushrooms with a brush with stiff bristles, cut off the stem a few millimeters, then transfer the mushrooms to a colander and wash under running water;
• large fresh champignons are cleaned according to the same principle, only you additionally need to cut out the dark spoiled areas under the caps with a sharp knife;
• Slightly stale mushrooms require additional cleaning methods, or rather, removing the top part of the skin. You need to grab the edge at the base of the cap with a knife and move up towards the other edge. All champignons are cleaned with such simple manipulations.

Regardless of the chosen method of cleaning mushrooms, after this procedure the champignons must be washed to remove debris, dust and possible contamination in the water, then transferred to a paper towel or napkins and allowed to dry completely.

Choosing a frying pan and oil for frying champignons

Personally, I only have cast iron frying pans on my household, which I switched to from Teflon-coated frying pans. Hand on heart, I can say that I have never regretted this decision, since cast iron frying pans hold heat perfectly. If, before the first use, it is thoroughly and correctly calcined, then in such a frying pan you will not only get the most delicious fried champignons, but also any other dishes from vegetables, fish and meat.

Olive oil is best for frying mushrooms. But if the financial aspect is important to you, then you can use unrefined sunflower oil instead of olive oil. It is best not to fry champignons in butter, as the dish will turn out too greasy.

How long to fry champignons in a frying pan

The time for direct frying of mushrooms is not clear and may depend on several factors:

• fire (barbecue, bonfire, gas stove, electric stove);
• frying pan (cast iron, Teflon, aluminum, etc.);
• method of cutting mushrooms (champignons cut into plates will fry much faster than whole mushrooms);
• readiness (raw champignons take longer to fry than mushrooms that you previously boiled).

More specifically and in numbers, the answer will look like this:

• boiled champignons are fried for 7 minutes;
• chopped and chopped mushrooms will be ready in 10 minutes;
• Whole fried champignons can be served in 15 minutes.

At the same time, all readers should understand that no one can tell them the exact time, since only through trial and sometimes error can you find “your” time frame for frying mushrooms.
