Romanian Mushroom Gravy (Ciulama cu Ciuperci)

Yum, yum, yum!  What a delight this dish is!  It's definitely not your regular gravy.  It is packed with such nice flavors from the mushrooms, the garlic and the parsley.  It's happiness in your mouth!:)  Traditionally, this is served with mamaliga (polenta).  You kind of mix everything together for a perfect bite.  I also like to serve mine with a nice piece of grilled or fried pork.  It makes a wonderful quick dinner.  Enjoy! 
Ingredients:
-1 Tbs vegetable oil
-1 medium onion, finely chopped
-1 lb mushrooms, thinly sliced
-1 1/2 cups water
-3/4 cup sour cream
-2 Tbs flour
-4 garlic cloves, crushed
-1 tsp dried parsley leaves
-salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
Heat oil in large skillet.  Add onion and cook for about 5 minutes.  Add the mushrooms and water.  Lower the heat and cook for about 7 minutes. 
Meanwhile, mix the sour cream and flour and set aside.
Once a little bit of the water in the skillet has evaporated, add the sour cream/ flour mixture.  Mix well.  Cook for about 5 minutes.  Add the crushed garlic, parsley, salt and pepper.  Mix well and cook for 2-3 more minutes.  Serve hot with mamaliga (polenta).  Enjoy!
