Cauliettes Mushroom Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute mushrooms in butter until tender. Add wine or broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 4 minutes. , Combine the flour, sour cream, pepper and nutmeg until smooth; stir into mushrooms. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until bubbly. Transfer to a shallow serving dish. Sprinkle with cheese and parsley.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a skillet and saute the onions until they begin to color, about 8 minutes. Add the mushrooms and saute until they release their liquid, then until it is evaporated and mushrooms are nicely browned, about 18 minutes. Stir in the vermouth and cook for 3 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Stir the sour cream, 1/2 cup of the white sauce, the chives, nutmeg, fennel seeds and salt and pepper. Mix well. Cook for 3 minutes.
• Divide the mixture among 4 ovenproof ramekins or custard cups. Spread a tablespoon of the remaining white sauce over each portion and sprinkle generously with Gruyere. Bake for 15 minutes or until bubbly and browned.

Steps:

• In a skillet cook the mushrooms in 2 1/2 tablespoons of the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until they are softened and most of the liquid they give off has evaporated. Stir in the flour and cook the mixture, stirring, for 3 minutes.
• In each of six 1 1/2-cup gratin dishes layer the onions, the remaining butter, cut into bits, the mushroom mixture, and salt and pepper to taste, beginning and ending with a layer of onions, and pour 1 tablespoon of the cream over the top of each gratin. In a small bowl combine well the Gruyère and the bread crumbs and sprinkle the mixture over the cream. (Alternatively, the gratin, layered in the same manner, may be prepared in one 2-quart gratin dish.) Bake the gratins in the middle of a preheated 325°F. oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until the onions are tender and the tops are golden. The gratins may be prepared 3 hours in advance, kept covered and chilled, and reheated in a preheated 400°F. oven for 5 minutes, or until they are heated through.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Grease a shallow baking dish.
• In a medium skillet saute the sliced mushrooms with butter over medium-high heat (if using garlic add in with the mushrooms).

• Heat until JUST beginning to boil.
• Transfer to a baking dish.
• Sprinkle with chopped parsley and cheese.
