Description

I use mushroom caviar both as a hot side dish for meat and as a cold component for sandwiches. Either way, it's delicious.

Ingredients

Onion - 3 pieces
Fresh Mushrooms - 2 lbs
Salt - to taste
Vinegar essence - 2 tablespoons
Sugar - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

We measure the amount of mushrooms using large frying pans. Clean a large frying pan of mushrooms and place it over high heat. No need to add anything; it's good as it is. The mushrooms will release water after a while. We need to wait until all the water evaporates.

Step 2

While the water is evaporating, clean two large or three medium onions and chop them finely.

Step 3

In the frying pan, where all the water has evaporated, add vegetable oil — you can use sunflower oil or olive oil, whichever you prefer. I do it both ways. Then, add the onions, mix thoroughly, reduce the heat to the minimum, and cover the frying pan with a lid.

Step 4

Let it simmer until the onions are fully cooked. When the onions are ready, add salt, sugar, and vinegar. I use the simplest vinegar. It will serve as a preservative and allow the mushroom caviar to last in the refrigerator for several months.
