Step 1
You can use frozen or fresh champignons. If using fresh mushrooms, wash them thoroughly and lay them on a kitchen towel. It's important to dry them well, or they’ll become watery when cooked.
Step 2
Do you need to peel champignons? Small ones can just be rinsed, but larger mushrooms are better peeled by removing the thin skin from the caps. Also, cut off any darkened stem ends. Slice the mushrooms into thin pieces.

Step 3
Peel the onion and dice it finely.
Step 4
Grate the cheese using a medium grater. Dutch cheese or Maasdam works best, but you can use any flavorful hard cheese. Cheese is optional but gives the sauce a richer taste and thicker texture.
Step 5
Finely chop or press the garlic.

In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until translucent.
Step 7
Add the sliced mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until they turn golden. Before adding cream, reduce the heat to low.
Step 8
Pour in the cream. Add garlic, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Simmer on low, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes.
