Place mushrooms and onion in a heavy, _dry_ skillet. Cover, and over very low heat, allow vegetables to cook in their own juices until they almost stick to the pan. Add 1/2 c butter. When butter has melted, add flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes over very low heat. Stir in sour cream and heavy cream with a wooden spoon, then add nutmeg and pepper to taste. Continue to cook, uncovered until mixture has thickened. Stir in parsley. In another pan, lightly saute bread crumbs in 1/4 c butter. Pour mushroom mixture into a buttered shallow casserole. Sprinkle top with sauteed bread crumbs. Bake until mixture has set and bread crumbs have browned a little more. 6 servings
