Poulet Roti With Wild Mushrooms Recipes

Steps:

• Make filling:
• Pour boiling water over porcini in a small bowl and soak until softened,10 to 20 minutes. Lift porcini out of water, squeezing excess liquid back into bowl, and rinse well to remove any grit. Pour soaking liquid through a paper-towel-lined sieve into a bowl and reserve.
• Finely chop onion and garlic in a food processor, then add cremini and porcini and pulse until very finely chopped.
• Heat butter in a skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides, then cook mushroom mixture, stirring frequently, until mushrooms are dry and 1 shade darker, about 8 minutes. Add reserved soaking liquid and simmer, stirring frequently, until mixture is thick, dry, and beginning to brown, about 15 minutes (there will be about 1 cup filling). Stir in parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Cool completely.
• Roll out dough and fill pierogies:
• Halve dough and roll out 1 piece on a lightly floured surface into a 15-inch round, keeping remaining dough wrapped. Cut out rounds (about 24) with floured cutter. Put 1 teaspoon filling in center of each round. Working with 1 round at a time, moisten edges with water and fold in half to form a half-moon, pinching edges together to seal. Transfer pierogies as assembled to a flour-dusted kitchen towel. Repeat with remaining rounds, then make more pierogies with remaining dough and filling.
• Cook onions and pierogies:
• Cook onions in butter in a large heavy skillet over moderately low heat, stirring frequently, until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
• Cook pierogies in a large pot of lightly salted boiling water until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to skillet with onions. Toss gently to coat and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place potatoes into a large roasting pan and drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and mix to coat potatoes with salt and olive oil. Turn so the cut sides are up.

• While potatoes are cooking, pour 1 teaspoon olive oil into a large skillet over medium heat and cook pancetta, stirring often, in the hot oil until pancetta releases some fat and looks like cooked ham, about 5 minutes. Stir in king trumpet, chanterelle, nameko, and clamshell mushrooms, adding a pinch of salt as they cook.
• Turn heat to high and cook mushrooms until most of the juices evaporate and mushrooms begin to brown, about 10 minutes.
• Turn oven heat up to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Stir potatoes in the baking dish; mix mushrooms and pancetta with potatoes. Return to oven and bake for 10 minutes; stir and continue baking until potatoes are browned, soft, and tender, about 10 more minutes. Let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Drizzle sherry vinegar over potatoes and mushrooms, sprinkle with tarragon, garlic, and 1 tablespoon olive oil, and toss to mix. Taste and adjust seasoning. Transfer to a serving platter.

Steps:

• For the beef: Preheat a pizza oven or regular oven to 400 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the tenderloin with all the herbs and salt and pepper. Heat a 14-inch cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and add 1/4 cup cooking oil, heating until hot. Add the tenderloin and sear until golden brown, about 5 minutes on each side. Once almost browned on the second side, add the butter and let melt. Transfer the pan to the oven to continue cooking until your desired doneness, or 12 minutes for medium-rare. Allow to rest for 10 minutes, then slice into 1- to 1 1/2-inch-thick slices.
• For the Armagnac sauce: Add the beef fat to a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and let melt. Add the bones and sear just until some of the bone marrow has begun to melt, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the oven and roast until dark and golden, about 15 minutes. Add the carrots, celery, onion, garlic and porcinis. Put back into the oven and allow to brown another 10 minutes.
• Transfer the pot to the stovetop. Add the rosemary, sage and Armagnac. Allow the alcohol to ignite and immediately cover with the lid. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Add the veal demi, chicken stock and green peppercorns, stirring to combine. Simmer, covered, for 30 minutes over medium heat.
• Carefully strain the Armagnac sauce directly into a medium saucepan and whisk in the cold butter until thoroughly combined.
• For the wild mushrooms: Turn the heat on under a 12-inch cast-iron pan to medium-high until hot. Add the mushrooms and allow to get hot again, then add the butter and allow the mushrooms to brown all over, about 10 minutes. Add the parsley and rosemary and stir to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed with salt and pepper. Keep warm until ready to serve.

• Add the mushrooms to the bottom of a large platter. Top with the sliced tenderloin, then spoon the sauce around the outside of the mushrooms. Top the tenderloin with the gremolata and serve.

Steps:

• To make the tarragon oil, chop the tarragon leaves, then warm the groundnut oil in a small pan. Add the tarragon, season with a pinch of salt, then liquidise until smooth with a stick blender. Set aside. Can be done up to 2 days ahead.
• Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water for 20-25 mins. Cooking them a bit longer than usual will give them a very soft, almost creamy texture. Drain and halve the potatoes lengthways and season with salt and pepper.
• While the potatoes cook, arrange the tomatoes on a baking tray, season, then drizzle liberally with walnut oil. Put under a pre-heated grill and cook for 6-8 mins until they start to colour and soften. Set aside to be served at room temperature. Add the sliced red onions to the cooked potatoes, with the lime juice. Cover and keep warm. Heat oven to 220c/fan 200c/gas 7.
• Rinse the mushrooms briefly and pat dry. Sauté in butter over a high heat, then season. Add the mushrooms to the potatoes and red onions. Stir the mustard into the cream, then lightly whip the cream (see tip, opposite). Season and stir it amongst the potatoes, onions and mushrooms, then spoon over a large ovenproof platter. Lay the strips of cheese, overlapping haphazardly, on top. Can be done up to 1 hr ahead.
• Now finish it in style. Bake until the cheese begins to melt and is tinged to a light golden brown, about 10-12 mins. Arrange the grilled tomatoes down either side of the platter, scatter the broken walnuts (if using) Over the tomatoes and drizzle with tarragon oil. Serve the rest of the tarragon oil separately.

Steps:

• Mushroom Garnish: While stock is simmering, mince the shallot and garlic. (Note: Chef Kaysen minces a whole shallot, but uses only half.) Set aside. Prepare chanterelles by tearing them into smaller pieces, like string cheese. If the chanterelles are very dirty, rinse in a bowl of water and gently wring through a clean dish towel to remove the absorbed water. Set aside. Slice the creminis and set aside. Pluck the tops of the maitakes from the base and set tops aside; add bases to stock (optional). Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and as many mushrooms as can fit in one layer. Sauté until mushrooms have just begun to caramelize, 1-2 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, remaining tablespoon of oil, and the butter. Stir and sauté another 1-2 minutes. Add shallots and garlic; stir and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Pull thyme leaves from the stem, roughly chop, and add to mushrooms. Turn off the heat and set the skillet aside.
• Risotto: Peel and trim the onion. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat; then add onions and a pinch of salt. Stir and cook until onions are translucent, 3-5 minutes. Add rice and stir constantly, until the grains are translucent around the edges, 3-5 minutes. Add wine and cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid is absorbed into the rice. Reduce heat to medium. Add the Mushroom Stock 1 cup at a time, stirring continually after each addition until the rice has absorbed almost all of the liquid before adding the next cup. This should take about 20 minutes total. (Make sure no grains are sticking to the sides of the pot.)
• When the rice has absorbed most of the liquid and has thickened, add ½ cup of the reserved Mushroom Purée and a pinch of salt; stir to combine. (Remaining purée can be frozen for up to 2 months.) Stir in Parmigiano and Pecorino, then turn off heat. Add mascarpone; add more Parmigiano and salt to taste. Stir until combined and creamy.Divide the risotto into 6 serving bowls. Evenly divide warm Mushroom Garnish on top of each. Garnish with a final dusting of grated Parmigiano and serve immediately.
• Set a medium pot over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Clean mushrooms by gently wiping away the dirt with a clean towel. Set aside. Smash and mince the garlic. To the pot, add the minced shallot, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Stir and sweat until translucent, 5 minutes. Meanwhile, roughly chop the mushrooms and add to the pot along with the thyme leaves. Turn heat to high, add the Madeira, and stir to deglaze the pan; continue cooking until the liquid has mostly evaporated (called au sec in French), 5 minutes. Add the water, bring to a simmer, and cook over low heat, uncovered, 30-45 minutes.
• Part 2: After 30-45 minutes, taste the stock and add salt to taste. Pour the stock through a fine-mesh strainer into a large container; add warm water until you have 8 cups of liquid. Set Mushroom Stock aside. In a blender or food processor, puree the solids from the stock )adding a bit of stock as needed). Season to taste with salt and set aside.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Stuff the cavity of the chicken with the thyme, garlic and bay leaf. Do not truss the chicken. Place the chicken in a Pyrex baking dish, breast side up. Distribute onions, tomatoes and margarine or butter and oil around and on top of the chicken. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
• Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or so, basting every now and then.
• Turn the bird breast side down. Add the potatoes and mix well with the juices in the pan. Add more margarine or butter - 1 or 2 ounces, if necessary. Lower the heat to 350 degrees. Cook another 45 minutes, basting occasionally. Serve. The skin should be very, very crisp. The chicken may be garnished with the potatoes.

Steps:

• First, make the sauce. Bring the white wine to the boil and pour it on top of the dried mushrooms. Cover with cling film and leave to soak and rehydrate for 1 hr. After this time, pass the wine through a fine sieve into a saucepan and put the mushrooms to one side. Add the shallots and garlic to the wine. Put the pan on a medium-high heat until the wine has reduced by two-thirds, and the shallots are soft and translucent. Add the tied-up sprigs of thyme, the mushrooms and double cream. Bring the cream to the boil and gently simmer until it has reduced by a third. Remove from the heat, season, pour in the Sherry and turn off the heat until serving. Can be made 2 days ahead.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Stuff the cavity of each poussin with 2 garlic cloves, 4 sprigs of thyme and a piece of lemon peel. For neat presentation, you can now tie the poussin legs together, but this isn't essential. Smear the butter over the poussins, put in a shallow roasting tin and cook for 30-35 mins until the legs easily come away from the bird, or until a digital cooking thermometer reads 75C when inserted in the breast. Take out of the oven, baste with the buttery cooking juices and leave to rest for 15 mins.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the thyme, rosemary, minced garlic, pepper, salt and olive oil. With your hands, completely cover the chicken with the herb mixture. Get your fingers under the skin on the breast and add it there too.
• Roll up 3 or 4 pieces of tin foil into 3" balls and place in the bottom of the crock pot. Place chicken on top of foil balls and set crock pot to low. This ensures that the chicken cooks evenly and the juice drips off. Cook for 5 - 6 hours, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
• Remove chicken from pot and place in an ovenproof dish. Place chicken under the broiler in the oven until the skin is nicely browned. Remove from oven and let it rest for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pour all juices from the crock pot into a small saucepan. Add enough chicken stock to make approximately 2 cups total.
• Mix cornstarch into cold water and whisk together. Pour cornstarch mixture into the drippings and whisk well. Turn burner heat to medium and, stirring occasionally, bring to a low boil and remove from heat. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Cut chicken and serve with gravy.
