Catalan Mushrooms With Garlic Parsley Food

SAUTEED MUSHROOMS WITH GARLIC AND PARSLEY - FUNGHI TRIFOLATI

Steps:

• If you got a pack of already sliced mushroom, skip step 1 entirely and start from step 2.
• Briefly clean the mushrooms under the running cold water, dry gently with a paper towel. Remove most dirty and external parts of the stem.
• Depending on the type of mushrooms slice them lengthwise (like in the picture).
• If you have stump or honey mushrooms there is no need to slice or cut them. They're already small enough to be cooked as whole. As to the bigger mushrooms, like porcini or penny bun mushrooms they need to be cleaned gently and cut in cubes.
• Place a large skillet pan over medium heat.
• Add olive oil, butter, chili flakes, chopped parsley (leave 1 tbsp to add at the end of cooking) and garlic cloves crushed with a flat knife. Saute for a minute or two.
• Add sliced mushrooms and stir everything together. Mushrooms will release liquid. Continue cooking for another 5-6 minutes until liquid is reduced.
• Add salt to taste and a tablespoon of chopped parsley you set aside earlier.
• Gently stir through and serve immediately.

EASY GARLIC MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 240C/ 220C fan.
• In a bowl combine the butter, salt if using, squeezed garlic, parsley and half of the cheese and mix well with a fork.
• Lay the mushrooms on a baking tray, spoon the mixture on top and sprinkle with some black pepper. Place in the oven for 10 minutes and preheat grill to medium.
• Take the mushrooms from the oven, top with the remaining cheese, place under the grill for about 2 minutes or till melted to your liking.

SPAGHETTI WITH MUSHROOMS, GARLIC & PARSLEY

Steps:

• Bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil in an 8-quart pot over high heat.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Scatter the garlic & crushed red pepper flakes over the oil and cook, shaking the pan, until golden, about 2 minutes.
• Add as many of the mushrooms as will fit comfortably into the skillet.
• Season lightly with salt and pepper and toss in the sage.
• Add the remaining mushrooms as the mushrooms in the skillet wilt and make room.
• Cook, stirring and tossing frequently, until the mushrooms are sizzling and brown, about 10 minutes. (If the mushrooms have given off a lot of water during cooking, you'll have to wait for that liquid to boil off before the mushrooms begin to brown.).
• Stir the spaghetti into the boiling wate; return to a boil, stirring frequently.
• Cook the pasta, semi-covered, stirring occasionally, until done, about 8 minutes.
• Add the stock to the browned mushrooms, bring to a boil, and lower the heat so the sauce is at a lively simmer.
• Cook until the liquid is reduced by about half, about 5 minutes.
• If the skillet is large enough to accommodate the sauce and pasta, fish the pasta out of the boiling water with a large wire skimmer and drop it directly into the sauce in the skillet.
• If not, drain the pasta, return it to the pot, and pour in the sauce.
• Toss in the parsley and bring the sauce and pasta to a boil, stirring gently to coat the pasta with sauce.
• Check the seasoning, adding salt and peppers if necessary.
• Remove the pot from the heat, stir in the cheese, and serve immediately in warm bowls.

GRILLED MUSHROOMS WITH GARLIC AND PARSLEY BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat a grill. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine butter, garlic, and 1/2 cup of the parsley, and mix well. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• To prepare the mushrooms, remove stems, lightly coat with olive oil, and grill until tender. Place a spoonful of the butter mixture on each mushroom, and bake until butter is melted, approximately 3 minutes.
• To serve, place on large platter, and sprinkle with remaining parsley.

CATALAN MUSHROOMS WITH GARLIC & PARSLEY

Steps:

• Put the mushrooms in a large bowl of cold water to soak for 10 minute Rinse them well and then drain.
• Heat a large sauté pan with a tight-fitting lid over medium heat. Add the drained mushrooms to the dry pan, cover immediately, and cook until all the moisture from the mushrooms is leached out, about 20 minute You'll know this has happened when you lift the lid for a peek and see the once-dry pan filled with liquid.
• Remove the lid, raise the heat to medium high, and boil until the liquid evaporates and the mushrooms begin to sizzle in the dry pan but haven't browned; they'll have shrunk considerably and should be firm when poked with a fork. Lower the heat to medium and stir in 1 Tbs. of the olive oil, the parsley, and the garlic. Sauté, stirring frequently, until the garlic softens, another 3 to 4 minute Transfer the mushrooms to a serving bowl, stir in the remaining 3 Tbs. olive oil, and season with salt to taste (I like to salt them liberally). Serve while hot.
