Title: Mushroom croustades
Categories: Vegetables
Yield: 4 Servings
4 Wholemeal cottage loaf rolls
1 lb Small cap mushrooms
1/4 pt Double cream
3 oz Butter
1 sm Garlic clove
Fresh rosemary
Cut the knobs off the rolls and reserve as lids. Scoop out most of
the crumb from the rolls, taking care not to pierce the crusts.
Crush the garlic with a pinch of salt, about 1/2 teaspoon fresh
chopped rosemary and a good grinding of black pepper. Mash these
flavourings into 2 1/2 oz butter and spread it thickly over the
insides of the hollowed-out rolls.
Season the cream generously with salt and pepper, add 1/2 teaspoon
fresh chopped rosemary and leave in a cool place to infuse. Slice
the mushrooms thickly, and heat the oven to 400 F (200 C) gas mark 6.
Sit the rolls on a baking tray and put the lids beside them. Bake
for 10 minutes until heated through and slightly crisp. Meanwhile
heat a large frying pan. Add 1/2 oz butter (don't be tempted to use
more) and, when the foam dies down, saute the mushrooms. Cook them,
stirring frequently, for 4-5 minutes to reduce them and intensify
their flavour. Pour on the cream and let it bubble up for a few
seconds. Turn and stir the mushrooms for a minute or so until every
slice is coated with the scant but richly flavoured sauce.
Away from the heat, check and adjust seasoning. Pile the creamy
mixture into the freshly baked croustades, top with the lids and
serve straight away with a large green (or tomato) salad on the side.
