SusannenoZ Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I went to our local farmers market today and got a huge box (about 4lb) of mushrooms, the big flat ones, for £2 will have some grilled with bacon for brekkie over the weekend, but any good recipes out there for soup maybe or any other ideas?

Lesley Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 If I have a lot of mushrooms - I slice them and fry in small batches in olive oil with a bit of butter. Then they are OK for freezing. My favourite mushroom meals are Risotto and Garlic Mushroom Lasagne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Managing Director Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I make a mushroom sauce which is great with grilled or fried meat and especially with turkey coated in breadcrumbs and shallow fried (home made chicken nuggets ) you finely chop an onion and fry that in butter until golden then add finely chopped mushrooms and cook for a couple of minutes then add some flour(maybe a tablespoonful) and some sour cream and S&P and cook through, we had it tonight in fact it is a good way to add a sauce without having to make gravy and only takes 15 minutes max to make, I haven't ever frozen it but think it would freeze OK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SusannenoZ Posted May 21, 2006 Author Share Posted May 21, 2006 Thanks, I made mushroom soup had some for breakfast this morning, gave some to my Mum, she had them with steak yesterday and I have frozen some, thanks for the tip Lesley. Still some left, so I will make the mushroom sauce I think and try to freeze that, as we are a bit mushoomed out now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 mushroom pate - that'#s what I usually do.. mushrooms (about a pound - whizzed in food processor) breadcrumbs (about 6oz - soak in qt.pint hot water) nutmeg (to taste - onion lemon juice garlic salt and pepper it's fantastic as a starter with toast... fry the onion in a big saucepan add the mushrooms then add the breadcrumbs and all the other stuff beat it all together - FANTASTIC! on toast - in sandwiches - with a salad - warm or chilled... (some people add a bit of fresh yeast - but I don't..) Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kazaddress Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 i have a couple of suggestions.. the best recipe in the planet is.... cheesy jack daniels mushrooms.... 1. fry the muchrooms in a little oil. 2. warm a metal ladel full of jack daniels of the hob.. when it starts smoking pour it over the mushrooms (it should flambay at this point) when the flame dies out, 3. stir in some cream and grated cheddar cheese andthicken the sauce. pour into a oven proof dish, and brown under the grill (i sometimes fry some bacon bits with the mushrooms whichs is devine) -creamy mushroom stoganoff -mushroom risotto -mushroom soup (all above recipes are on my recipe site) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
