2 tbsp olive oil or unsalted butter
1 small onion (finely chopped)

1 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Sauté the Mushrooms:
Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until soft.
Add the sliced mushrooms, season with salt, and cook for 5-7 minutes until they release their moisture and are golden brown.
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Add the thyme, nutmeg, and a pinch of black pepper.
Let the sauce simmer for 3-5 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and mix until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
