SPINACH AND MUSHROOM BAKE image

Number Of Ingredients 12

1
pound spinach
1
pound crimini mushrooms
1/4
cup white wine
3/4
cup heavy cream
1/2
cup whole milk
1/3
cup parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • 1 pound spinach 1 pound crimini mushrooms 1/4 cup white wine 3/4 cup heavy cream 1/2 cup whole milk 1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the mushrooms into bite-size pieces. Warm a tablespoon of butter and two tablespoons olive oil in a saucepan, then add the mushrooms. Stirring occasionally, saute the mushrooms until some of their liquid cooks away and they start to brown. Add the white wine and boil for a couple of minutes. Then add the cream and milk and let simmer for several more minutes. Turn off the heat. (If you have time, leave this to steep; the cream and milk will get wonderfully mushroomy.) Wash the spinach well and put in a saucepan over medium heat. Cover the pan and let the spinach steam for several minutes. Then drain it and squeeze the water out. Add the spinach and a couple tablespoons of parmesan to the mushroom-cream mixture. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining parmesan on top. Cook for about a half-hour, or until golden. (If the cheese melts but does not crisp, run it under the broiler for several minutes.)
