Fried mushrooms. Chop 1 small onion into small pieces and sautee them in oil (on medium) until they start to turn yellow-brown. Cut 1lb of mushrooms into bite size pieces, add them to the onions and sautee them on medium heat on open pan for 15 min (stir regularly). If the mushrooms are wet, first heat them up on a separate pan to get the water out, then drain, mix with onions, and sautee. Add salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder. Chop finely with a chopper. Add a pint of half-and-half or heavy cream and shreaded mozarella or Havarti cheese or Mexican 4-cheese blend to make a sticky sauce. Mix and stew for a few minutes to make sure the cheese has melted and the sauce is homogeneous. Serve hot on pasta, meat, or use as dip for bread.
