Literally could have just dumped a tub of sour cream and some spices into the pan with the meat and onion juices and made an acceptable sauce in less than five minutes. This screams either laziness or empty fridge to me.
oh, I agree, those pasta dishes are quick and easy, keeping pesto, tomato sauce or even frozen cheeze as rainyday reserve can go long way for quick and dirty recipe.
Crème fraîche IS a type of sour cream (basically the fancier European version). It’s just slightly sweeter and has a higher fat content than the regular stuff.
But with as many upgrades as this recipe makes over the classic, it’s almost surprising he didn’t substitute this one as well.
