Portobello Mushroom Stew Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute the mushrooms, onion and garlic in oil until tender. Add the wine. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced by half. Stir in the tomatoes, kale and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes., Add beans; heat through. Discard bay leaf.

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, garlic, salt and pepper. Add beef, a few pieces at a time and shake to coat.
• In a stock pot, heat oil. Add onion and celery and cook down until onion is soft and translucent.
• Add beef to pot in batches and brown. Remove beef and set aside.
• Add mushrooms to pot; saute until tender. Return beef to pot.
• Add the wine, broth, thyme and rosemary, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Now add the red pepper flakes at this point.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until beef is tender.
• Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; gradually stir into stew.
• Increase heat and bring to a boil, stirring for 2 minutes or until thickened.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
• Add onions and rosemary and cook stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 12 minutes; remove to a bowl.
• Return the pan to the stove and add half the remaining oil.
• When it's hot, add the portabella mushrooms and sauté until nicely browned, about 5 minutes.
• Add portabellas to the onion mixture and repeat sautéing with the remaining oil and the white mushrooms.
• Return everything to the pan and add the tomatoes, tomato paste, garlic, 1-1/2 cups water and vinegar.
• Simmer gently for 12 to 15 minutes, then swirl in the butter.
• Season with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack at the top of the oven, and preheat the broiler. Arrange the mushrooms on a baking sheet, and broil until the sides facing up begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Flip, and continue to broil until the sides facing up are soft, about 5 minutes more. Let cool.
• Put the mushrooms, gill-side up, between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, and pound to about 1/4 inch thick with a meat mallet. Season all over with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Whisk together the milk and eggs in a separate shallow dish.
• Lower the oven heat to 250 degrees F. Put a rack over a rimmed baking sheet. Heat about an inch of oil to 350 degrees F in a large cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
• While the oil heats, dredge each mushroom in the flour mixture to completely coat; shake off any excess. Then dip into the egg mixture until fully coated; let the excess drip off. Return the mushroom to the flour mixture, and dredge a second time, until completely coated, pressing firmly into the flour mixture. Arrange on one side of the rack on the baking sheet.
• Add 2 of the breaded mushrooms to the hot oil, and cook, turning once, until crisp and golden, about 5 minutes total. Transfer the mushrooms to the unused side of the rack. When the oil comes back to temperature, repeat with the remaining 2 mushrooms and keep the first 2 warm in the oven.
• Serve the mushroom steaks with mashed potatoes and generous spoonfuls of hot gravy. Garnish with chives or scallions if using.
• Position an oven rack in the top position in the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Toss the onions, celery, carrots and garlic with the oil and 1 teaspoon salt on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until the vegetables are charred in some places, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Bring the roasted vegetables, 1 cup water, mushrooms, thyme, sun-dried tomatoes, soy sauce, bay leaf and 1 teaspoon salt to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is gone, 8 to 10 minutes. Add 6 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and bring back to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and gently simmer until reduced by about one third, about 45 minutes. Strain the stock into a large liquid measuring cup, then squeeze all the liquid out of the solids with the back of a ladle (there should be about 4 cups of stock); discard the solids. (If not making gravy right away, let the stock cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month; warm slightly before making gravy.)
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the sage leaves to the butter, and stir for 30 seconds; remove the fried sage leaves, and set aside. Add the flour to the saucepan, and stir until smooth and lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Slowly pour in the warm stock while whisking constantly until smooth and thick, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Chop the fried sage, stir it and the parsley into the gravy and season to taste with pepper.

Steps:

• Brush the mushrooms all over with olive oil. Sprinkle the pepper evenly over the gill sides (about 1/2 teaspoon per mushroom). Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high, then add the mushrooms gill side up and sear until the underside is browned and the gill side looks wet, 3 to 6 minutes. Flip and cook until golden and the pepper is fragrant, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Flip the mushrooms so they're gill side up, then add the butter and garlic, and season with salt. While stirring the garlic to keep it from scorching, tilt the skillet to spoon up the melting butter and baste the mushrooms until tender, 2 to 5 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a plate, leaving the butter in the skillet.
• Add the shallot and stir until softened, 2 to 4 minutes, adding a little more butter if the pan is dry. Stand back, and carefully add the Cognac. (It might flame.) Stir until the Cognac has nearly evaporated. Add the heavy cream and mustard, season with salt, and stir to combine. Return the mushrooms to the pan gill side down, and cook until the cream is thickened and the color of a latte, 2 to 4 minutes. Eat the mushrooms with a drizzle of the sauce.

Steps:

• Melt butter with olive oil in a wok or deep nonstick frying pan over low heat. Increase heat to medium, add shallot and garlic, and saute for 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and saute until soft, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add chicken broth, rice, wine, carrots, celery, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Cover slightly with a lid and bring to a simmer.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until rice is cooked, veggies are tender, and sauce is a nice, thick consistency, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium heat; stir in mushrooms, bell pepper, onion, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Saute until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
• Add vegetable broth and tomato paste; stir until well blended. Stir in lentils and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes. Add fresh basil and continue to simmer, covered, until lentils are tender, about 15 more minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Ladle into bowls and float 1 tablespoon sherry on top of each bowl.
