Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Main course

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 16

small handful dried porcini mushrooms
25g butter
1 shallot , finely sliced
2 garlic cloves , crushed
5 thyme sprigs , leaves picked
500g large field mushroom , sliced
200g chestnut mushroom , sliced
small glass of red wine
125ml vegetable stock
100g taleggio cheese (or vegetarian alternative), sliced
500ml milk
1 bay leaf
3 thyme sprigs
250g instant polenta
50g butter
75g parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), grated

Steps:

  • Soak the dried mushrooms in 150ml warm water. Set aside for 20 mins, then drain and squeeze, reserving the soaking liquid. Heat the butter in a large frying pan. When sizzling, add the shallot and cook for a few mins until soft. Add the garlic and thyme leaves, cook for 1 min more, then turn up the heat and add the soaked mushrooms. After 1 min, add all the other mushrooms and fry over a very high heat for 5 mins until soft. Splash in the red wine and boil rapidly for 1 min. Pour in the stock and reserved mushroom liquid, and simmer for 15 mins until you have a thickened stew. Turn off the heat.
  • For the polenta, bring the milk to the boil with 500ml water, the bay and thyme. Turn off the heat and leave to infuse for 20 mins, then fish out the herbs and bring back to the boil. Add the polenta in a steady stream, whisking steadily. Cook for 1 min until thickened, then stir in the butter and Parmesan. Spoon a 'crater' of polenta onto a baking tray and fill with the ragout. Top with slices of Taleggio, place under a hot grill until melting and oozy, then let everyone help themselves.

ROAST BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH MUSHROOM RAGOUT



Roast Beef Tenderloin with Mushroom Ragout image

This showstopper of a roast is actually very easy to make. Look for a center-cut piece of tenderloin with an even thickness so it cooks properly. Simply sear and roast it to medium-rare, then enjoy the compliments that are guaranteed to follow.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

One 2-pound center-cut beef tenderloin roast
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 to 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pound mixed mushrooms, such as shiitake, cremini or white button, trimmed and quartered
1 medium shallot or 1/2 small onion, chopped
3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped
1/2 cup Madeira, vermouth or white wine
1/3 cup heavy cream
Optional: Dijon or whole-grain mustard, cracked mixed peppercorns, or herbes de Provence

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the beef dry and season all over with salt and a generous amount of pepper. Add the oil to the skillet and heat until shimmering. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and swirl to melt. Add the beef and sear until mahogany brown on all sides, about 8 minutes total.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 125 degrees F for medium-rare, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile make the ragout: Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and spread them out evenly; increase the heat to high. Let the mushrooms cook, undisturbed, until browned, then shake the skillet to flip them over. Add the additional butter along the sides of the skillet as the mushrooms cook, if the skillet seems very dry. Continue to cook until nicely browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the shallot and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 2 minutes. Season the mushrooms with 1/2 teaspoon salt and some ground black pepper; add the thyme. Pull the skillet off the heat and add the Madeira. Return the skillet to the heat and scrape up any of the brown bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add the heavy cream and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
  • When the beef is ready, transfer to a cutting board, tent very loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Slice the beef across the grain crosswise, arrange on a platter and serve with the mushroom ragout.

PENNE WITH MUSHROOM RAGOUT AND SPINACH



Penne With Mushroom Ragout and Spinach image

​​Mushrooms and spinach together is always a match made in heaven. I use a mix of wild and regular white or cremini mushrooms for this, but don't hesitate to make it if regular mushrooms are all that is available.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 1h

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 ounce (about 1/2 cup) dried porcini mushrooms
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 medium onion or 2 shallots, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound mixed regular and wild mushrooms or 1 pound regular white or cremini mushrooms, trimmed and cut in thick slices (or torn into smaller pieces, depending on the type of mushroom)
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup fruity red wine, such as a Côtes du Rhone or Côtes du Luberon
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme or a combination of thyme and rosemary
6 ounces baby spinach or 12 ounces bunch spinach (1 bunch), stemmed and thoroughly cleaned
3/4 pound penne
Freshly grated Parmesan to taste

Steps:

  • Place the dried mushrooms in a Pyrex measuring cup and pour on 2 cups boiling water. Let soak 30 minutes, while you prepare the other ingredients. Place a strainer over a bowl, line it with cheesecloth or paper towels, and drain the mushrooms. Squeeze the mushrooms over the strainer to extract all the flavorful juices. Then rinse the mushrooms, away from the bowl with the soaking liquid, until they are free of sand. Squeeze dry and set aside. If very large, chop coarsely. Measure out 1 cup of the soaking liquid and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy, nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the onion or shallots. Cook, stirring often, until tender, about 5 minutes. Turn up the heat to medium-high and add the fresh mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, until they begin to soften and sweat, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and salt to taste, stir together for about 30 seconds, then add the reconstituted dried mushrooms and the wine and turn the heat to high. Cook, stirring, until the liquid boils down and glazes the mushrooms. Add the herbs and the mushroom soaking liquid. Bring to a simmer, add salt to taste, and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until the mushrooms are thoroughly tender and fragrant. Turn off the heat, stir in some freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust salt.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt generously. Fill a bowl with ice water. Add the spinach to the boiling water and blanch for 20 seconds only. Remove with a skimmer and transfer to the ice water, then drain and squeeze out water. Chop coarsely and add to the mushrooms. Reheat gently over low heat.
  • Bring the water back to a boil and cook the pasta al dente following the timing suggestions on the package. If there is not much broth in the pan with the mushrooms and spinach, add a ladleful of pasta water. Drain the pasta, toss with the mushrooms and spinach, add Parmesan to taste, and serve at once.

MUSHROOM RAGOUT



Mushroom Ragout image

I just saw this on the Food Network on the show "How To Boil Water". It was paired with a roast beef tenderloin. The tenderloin was cooked the same way as a lot of recipes already posted here so I won't duplicate it. However, I didn't find the recipe for the Mushroom Ragout so here it is. Hey - What's not to like about mushrooms, wine and heavy cream? You can use any combination of mushrooms or just one kind if that's what is available in your area. If Madeira wine isn't available you can use a dry white wine, but my preference for this recipe is a Madeira. The Shitake mushrooms have a hard stem so they must be removed but you can use the stems on the button and cremini mushrooms. You may have to cook the mushrooms in two batches if they won't fit in a single layer in your skillet.

Provided by Luby Luby Luby

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb mixed mushroom (such as shitake, cremini or button mushroom)

3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped off stems
1 tablespoon minced garlic (or less depending on preference)
1/2 cup madeira wine or 1/2 cup white wine
1/3 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Clean the mushrooms by brushing with a kitchen towel or a brush to remove any loose dirt.
  • Remove the shitake stems and discard.
  • Quarter the mushrooms and set aside.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the mushrooms to the skillet in a single layer in the pan.
  • Do not pile the mushrooms on top of one another.
  • Increase the heat to high and cook mushrooms until brown then turn them over with a spoon or by shaking the pan.
  • If skillet seems dry add the additional 2 tablespoons butter.
  • Cook until nicely browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the shallot or onion and garlic and cooked until softened about 3 minutes.
  • Add the salt, pepper, and thyme.
  • Add the Madeira wine and scrape up all of the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

ARTICHOKE, MUSHROOM AND POTATO RAGOûT



Artichoke, Mushroom and Potato Ragoût image

This robust Provençal ragout is more of a cool weather recipe than Tuesday's ragout with peppers and tomatoes.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     main course

Time 1h30m

Yield Serves four to six

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ounce (about 1 cup) dried porcini mushrooms
1 lemon, for trimming the artichokes, plus fresh lemon juice for seasoning
12 baby artichokes, or 6 medium or large artichokes
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, thinly sliced
4 to 5 large garlic cloves, sliced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 bay leaf
A generous sprig of thyme
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 pound small potatoes, scrubbed and quartered
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Place the mushrooms in a bowl or large Pyrex measuring cup. Bring 2 cups water to a boil, and pour over the mushrooms. Let sit 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the artichokes. If small, cut in half; quarter if large.
  • Place a strainer lined with cheesecloth or paper towels over a bowl, and drain the mushrooms. Squeeze the mushrooms over the strainer to extract liquid, then rinse in several changes of water to rid them of grit. Set aside. Add enough water to the bowl to make 3 cups of soaking liquid.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy casserole or lidded nonstick skillet. Add the onion, and cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Stir in the garlic and mushrooms, and cook together, stirring, until fragrant, about one minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until it darkens and begins to caramelize in three to five minutes.
  • Drain the artichokes, and add with the potatoes. Stir together for another minute, then stir in the wine. Bring to a boil, and cook until most of the liquid is gone. Add the soaking liquid from the mushrooms, the bay leaf, thyme, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 40 minutes, until the potatoes and artichokes are tender. Uncover, turn up the heat, and reduce the liquid in the pan to thicken. Remove from the heat, taste and adjust salt and pepper. Stir in a teaspoon or more of fresh lemon juice, if desired, and the parsley. Serve hot or at room temperature.

1/2 cup (packed) coarsely grated Comté cheese
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
Mushroom Ragout:
3 tablespoons butter, divided
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 1/2 pounds assorted wild mushrooms (such as oyster, crimini, and stemmed shiitake), thickly sliced

2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup low-salt chicken broth
1/3 cup crème fraîche or whipping cream
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley, divided
1/3 cup (packed) coarsely grated Comté cheese

Steps:

  • For polenta:
  • Generously butter 13x9x1- inch baking sheet. Bring milk, broth, and bay leaf to simmer in heavy medium saucepan. Remove saucepan from heat; cover and let steep 20 minutes to allow flavors to develop. Discard bay leaf. Bring liquid to boil. Gradually add polenta, whisking constantly until smooth. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until polenta is very thick, stirring frequently, about 10 minutes. Stir in Comté cheese and butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer polenta to prepared 13x9x1-inch baking sheet. Using wet hands, press polenta evenly over sheet to edges. Chill until firm, at least 3 hours. Cut polenta into 20 squares. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
  • For mushroom ragout:
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter with 2 tablespoons oil in large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add all mushrooms and sauté until tender and browned, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Add shallots and balsamic vinegar; sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Season lightly to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.

Working in batches, add polenta squares to skillet and cook until browned, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer to rimmed baking sheet and keep warm in oven while cooking remaining polenta squares.
  • Arrange 2 polenta squares on each plate. Top each with warm mushroom ragout; sprinkle with grated Comté cheese and remaining parsley and serve.
  • MORE INFO:
  • Comté is a semi-firm, Gruyère-style cow's-milk cheese made primarily in France's Franche-Comté region. It adds great flavor to this recipe and would also be delicious on a cheese platter. Comté is available at some supermarkets, cheese shops, and specialty foods stores.
  • *Polenta can be found at some supermarkets, as well as at natural foods stores and Italian markets. If polenta is unavailable, substitute an equal amount of regular yellow cornmeal and cook it about half as long.

Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, juiced
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Olive oil
1 pound assorted wild mushrooms
1 tablespoon butter, plus 7 tablespoons
1/4 cup chopped shallots
1/2 cup Madeira
1/2 cup reduced veal stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 sprig fresh thyme
1 sprig fresh chervil
Potato Croquettes, recipe follows
3 large baking potatoes, like russets, peeled
1/4 pound butter
4 egg yolks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Nutmeg
1 whole egg
1 cup Oregon hazelnuts, finely chopped
2 cups white bread crumbs
1/2 cup white flour
4 cups canola oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Mix lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce together and pour over the salmon fillets. Saute the salmon in olive oil in a skillet on both sides until golden brown, approximately 2 minutes on each side.
  • In a clean skillet, heat 1/4 cup of olive oil to lightly smoking. Add cleaned and cut mushrooms and saute on high heat until light brown. Remove from skillet and add 1 tablespoon butter and chopped shallots. Saute until golden brown. Add the Madeira and veal stock and reduce to a syrupy consistency. Add cream, herbs, mushrooms, and small pieces of the remaining butter and mix well. Place on top of salmon. Serve with Potato Croquettes.
  • Cut the potatoes into 2-inch pieces, and cook in salt water until fork tender. Drain water from the potatoes then place the pot back on the heat. Add the potatoes to the pot and steam for 2 to 3 minutes to dry the potatoes well. Mash the potatoes until creamy. While they are still hot, add butter, egg yolks, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Mix well with a wooden spoon until smooth. Let cool until easy to handle. Form potatoes into golf ball-sized balls.
  • Beat the egg and place into a shallow bowl. Mix hazelnuts and bread crumbs together in a shallow bowl. Roll potato balls in flour, then into the beaten egg, then into hazelnut/bread crumb mixture. Place balls in the refrigerator and let stand for 2 hours.
  • Heat oil to 350 degrees F in a 1-quart casserole. Place potato balls in oil and fry until golden brown. Remove from oil and place on a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Serve with salmon.

Roast pheasant with wild mushroom, potato & bacon ragout image

A small pheasant makes an ideal roast for two - serve this earthy game bird with porcini sautéed potatoes

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

25g pack dried porcini mushrooms
1 oven-ready pheasant
1 tbsp sunflower oil
70g pack smoked bacon lardon
2 medium baking potatoes , chopped into small chunks
125ml white wine
small handful flat-leaf parsley , roughly chopped
small handful watercress leaves, to serve
1 tbsp olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Pour about 200ml of hot water from the kettle over the mushrooms and leave to soak for 20 mins. Drain, reserving the liquid. Squeeze any excess liquid from the mushrooms, but keep them whole.
  • Generously season the pheasant all over. Heat the sunflower oil in a shallow flameproof dish and slowly brown the legs, turning frequently, for 20 mins. Brown the breast for a further 10 mins, then remove from the dish. Add the bacon to the dish and sizzle until starting to crisp. Throw in the potatoes, increase the heat and fry with the bacon until brown around the edges. Add the mushrooms and fry to heat through. Pour in the wine, sizzle for a moment, and pour over the reserved mushroom liquid, keeping the last drop back as it may be gritty. Nestle the pheasant, breast-side up, in the middle of the dish and roast in the oven for 25 mins.
  • Remove from the oven, lift the pheasant onto a plate, cover loosely with foil, then leave to rest for about 15 mins. Tip any resting juices into the potatoes, stir in the parsley, then transfer everything into a serving dish. Put the watercress in a bowl and toss with a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with the potato ragout and the pheasant ready to carve.

SEARED FISH WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOM RAGOUT



Seared Fish With Shiitake Mushroom Ragout image

Here is a main dish that can work with many kinds of skin-on fish fillets. Crisp the skin to a crackle in a pan, then finish cooking in the oven; the method can also work with meaty, skinless fillets like hake and mahi-mahi. As you cook, season little by little, tasting all the while, and feel free to adjust to your own palate. Though Chinese stir-fries are often thickened with a slurry of cornstarch, this recipe uses miso, which adds nuanced depth. A slick of sesame oil enriches the sauce and burnishes the fish. A crisp, off-dry riesling makes a fine pairing.

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, roasts, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

24 ounces fish fillets, preferably with skin, such as wild striped bass, sablefish or red snapper
Salt and ground black pepper
3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, such as grapeseed, olive or peanut oil
2 large cloves garlic, slivered
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 cup sliced onion
2 stalks celery, slant-cut in 1/2-inch slices
1/2 pound shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded, caps quartered
1/2 cup cooked edamame, fresh or frozen
1/2 teaspoon Chinese 5-spice powder
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
2/3 cup beer, preferably lager
1 tablespoon red miso
2 tablespoons flour
4 scallions, trimmed and slant-cut, including a couple of inches of the green
1/4 cup cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Cut fish in 4 equal portions, season with salt and pepper and brush with 2 tablespoons sesame oil. Set aside. Heat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Place a wok or large skillet on medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add garlic, ginger, onion and celery and stir-fry until the vegetables soften. Add mushrooms, lower heat to medium and continue to cook about 5 minutes, until mushrooms soften. Stir in the edamame and 5-spice powder. Add soy sauce, vinegar and beer and bring to a simmer. Stir in miso and let it dissolve. Remove from heat. Add salt and pepper if needed.
  • Place a heavy ovenproof skillet, preferably cast iron, over high heat. While pan heats, dust the skin of the fish with flour. Add remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Place fish, skin side down, in pan and sear about 5 minutes, until skin browns.
  • Turn fish over, place in oven and roast 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until just cooked through. An instant-read thermometer should register about 140 degrees. Remove from oven.
  • Reheat mushroom ragout. Add scallions, cilantro and remaining tablespoon of sesame oil. Spoon mixture onto a platter or four dinner plates. Top with the fish, skin side up, and serve.

BAKED POTATOES WITH CREAMY MUSHROOM RAGOUT BY ISABELLE BOUCHER OF CRUMB: A FOOD BLOG



BAKED POTATOES WITH CREAMY MUSHROOM RAGOUT BY ISABELLE BOUCHER OF CRUMB: A FOOD BLOG image

Categories     Chicken     Mushroom     Dinner

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

Baked Potatoes:
4 large baking potatoes, washed and scrubbed
1 tsp olive oil
Kosher salt
Creamy Mushroom Ragout:
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp olive oil
1 lb mixed fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 cup thinly sliced shallots
3 tbsp flour
1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tbsp sweet paprika
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bake the Potatoes: Preheat oven to 425°F. Rub the potatoes with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and prick all over with a fork. Place on a baking sheet, and bake in preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until a fork pierced through the skin meets no resistance. Prepare the Mushroom Ragout: While the potatoes are baking, prepare the ragout. In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan set over medium heat, heat the butter and olive oil until butter is melted and foamy. Add shallots and saute until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook for 10 minutes longer, or until the mushrooms are soft and starting to brown. In a small bowl, whisk together white wine and flour until smooth. Add to the pan along with chicken broth and paprika. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until thick. Stir in the sour cream and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes to heat through (make sure not to bring to a boil, as this can cause the sauce to curdle). Remove from heat immediately, and stir in dill and parsley. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Assembly: Once the potatoes are done, transfer them to a cutting board to cool for 5 minutes. Cut a slit through the top of each potato, and gently push on the ends to create a small pocket for the topping. Sprinkle the inside of each potato with a little salt. Ladle a generous amount of mushroom ragout onto each potato, letting the excess spill over the sides and onto the plate (yes, it's messy, but it's the best part!). Finish with a sprinkling of parsley or dill, if desired, and lots of black pepper. Serve immediately.

3 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
3/4 teaspoon dried hot red-pepper flakes
12 oz sliced mixed fresh mushrooms (6 cups)
1 (14-oz) can diced tomatoes in juice
Pinch of sugar
