Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add oil and onion. Sauté until edges begin to brown, about 10 minutes.
Add mushrooms, salt, and pepper. Continue to cook over high heat, stirring every few minutes until all liquid has evaporated, about 15 minutes. Add garlic to the skillet for the last two minutes of cooking.
Remove from heat and transfer to a container. Add remaining ingredients and blend with an immersion blender until smooth.

Thank you so much for this delicious recipe I made it for shabbos and it was so good
Some reactions:
1. Why add water? If you insist on the extra liquid, cover the lid and DON'T allow the mushrooms, etc. to evaporate their liquids. The only reason I can think for the water as an ingredient is because American mayonnaise is thicker than Israeli.
2. It's too much mayonnaise. Eyeball it instead to just get it to the point of creaminess. As is it's more like a flavored mayonnaise.
3. I left out the basil. I was afraid what it would do to the flavor. Other than that, it's delicious! I'd make it again!
Hi Stacey! So glad you like this recipe. To answer your question, browning equals flavor. So we're looking to get flavor on the mushrooms, which will only happen once the liquid has evaporated and it can start to brown. If your mayo is looser to start with (this varies across brands, let alone across continents!) then add additional water back in to suit your tastes. Re: mayo and basil amounts, as with most recipes, you can and should of course tweak to suit what you prefer best. Glad you enjoyed!
