Mushroom Pate Recipe Jamie Oliver

Steps:

• Brush off any dirt from the mushrooms with a pastry brush or a tea towel. Slice the mushrooms thinly, but tear any larger mushrooms, like girolles, chanterelles. and blewits in half. Put the olive oil in a very hot frying pan, and add the mushrooms. Let them fry fast, tossing once or twice, then add the garlic and chile with a pinch of salt (it is very important to season mushrooms slightly, as it really brings out the flavor). Continue to fry fast for 4 to 5 minutes, tossing regularly. Then turn the heat off and squeeze in the lemon juice. Toss and season, to taste.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta in boiling, salted water until al dente. Drain and add to the mushrooms, with the Parmesan, parsley, and butter. Toss gently, coating the pasta with the mushrooms and their flavor. Serve, scraping out all of the last bits of mushroom from the pan, and sprinkle with a little extra parsley and Parmesan.

Steps:

• ;
• Preheat your oven to its lowest setting and pop the loaf of bread in to warm through.
• Spend a few minutes gently brushing along the underside of the mushrooms to get rid of any bugs and dirt that might be hiding there. This is well worth the effort. Finely chop your parsley, stalks and all, reserving a few of the leaves.
• Put the butter into a large hot pan and as soon as it starts to melt add a drizzle of olive oil, the mushrooms, sliced onion, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Stir everything around and cook for about 8 minutes, or until the onions have softened and the mushrooms are starting to caramelize and take on colour.
• Add the chopped parsley, then pour in the cream. Continue to stir and cook for another minute, until the cream has come to the boil, then turn down the heat and simmer for a minute before removing from the heat. Add a good squeeze of lemon juice, have a taste, and add more salt, pepper or lemon juice if it needs it.
• Take your bread out of the oven and tear it into big chunks. Divide the mushrooms among the plates and scatter over the reserved parsley leaves. Serve with the chunks of bread on the side to mop up all the creamy mushroomy juices, and tuck in!

Steps:

• In a food processor chop mushrooms, garlic and scallions.
• Melt 2 tbsp butter and add chopped items.
• Sauté till soft.
• Add chicken stock and cook on high till all the liquid has evaporated.
• Combine cream cheese and 2 tbsp butter in food processor.
• Add mushroom mixture and process till combined.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Put in crock or container and refrigerate till ready to serve.

Steps:

• Put a large heavy frying pan, big enough to hold all the mushrooms in one layer, over heat and add about 1-2 tbls. olive oil. Slice the larger mushrooms up, and leave the smaller ones whole. Add them all to the pan and give it a shake to toss the mushrooms in the oil.
• Add the chopped garlic and fresh herbs and shake the pan again. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and the crumbled chili, add to the pan and fry gently for a few minutes. If the mixture becomes dry, pour in a little more oil.
• Once the mushrooms have started to turn a golden color, after about 3-4 minutes, add the butter and a nice squeeze of lemon juice(not too much) and toss again.
• To finish this off and make it into a creamy sauce, spoon 2-3 tablespoons of water into the pan. Simmer for a little longer, until you have a nice simple sauce that just loosely coats the mushrooms.
• Now toast your bread.
• Rub the toast with the cut side of the remaining clove of garlic. Place each slice on a serving plate, pile the mushrooms and the creamy juices from the pan on top and dig inches Enjoy!
