Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup onion, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1 lb wild mushroom, sliced (chanterelles, cepes, or whatever you like)
salt
pepper
7 ounces dry white wine
4 ounces cream
4 slices bread, a hearty country bread is best
4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese (or Sbrinz, if you can get it)

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the onion, and cook until softened, but not brown. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and cook over medium heat until the juices start to run. Uncover, and cook until the liquid evaporates.
  • Add the wine, reduce by half. Add the cream, stir, and let simmer a few minutes, until thickened.
  • Toast the bread, and place on a baking sheet. Top with the mushroom mixture and grated cheese.
  • Place the toasts under the broiler, just until the top starts to brown. Serve immediately.
