Garlic Sauce with Sour Cream

To prepare a delicious and creamy garlic sauce, we start by preparing the garlic, which is the key ingredient of this recipe. We take a few cloves of garlic, preferably fresh, and carefully peel them. Whether you choose to crush them using a mortar or grate them on a fine grater, make sure to obtain a fine paste. Once the garlic is prepared, we add a teaspoon of salt, which will not only enhance the flavors but also help extract the juices from the garlic. This is the moment when we add the oil. It is important to add the oil gradually, in a thin stream, while stirring the mixture with a spatula or a wooden spoon. This technique will help emulsify the oil with the garlic, resulting in a creamy paste similar to mayonnaise.

Once we achieve the desired consistency, we transfer the garlic mixture to a larger bowl. Now it's time to add a splash of freshness, so we squeeze the juice of half a lemon. This will not only add a pleasant tang but will also balance the intensity of the garlic flavor. We continue by adding two teaspoons of sweet gulyas paste. It is essential to use a quality paste, which will bring a rich taste and an attractive color to the garlic sauce.

After mixing the ingredients well, we introduce another essential element: the 400 grams of sour cream. This will give the garlic sauce a velvety texture and a delicate flavor, perfectly contrasting with the strong flavors of the garlic and gulyas paste. We mix everything carefully, ensuring that each ingredient is well incorporated.

This garlic sauce is ideal to be served alongside any steak, whether it is pork, chicken, or beef. Unlike the classic garlic sauce, which can be quite intense, this preparation has a milder and more balanced note, pleasing to all who taste it. It will surely become a favorite accompaniment at your meals!
