to serve 6:
2 tablespoons
olive oil
1
onion

¼ pint
dry white wine
2 tablespoons
tomato purée
2 teaspoons

How to Cook Mushrooms à la Grècque
- Peel and finely chop the onion. Peel and crush (mince) the garlic. Trim the stems of the mushrooms flush with the bodies. Heat the oil in a frying pan (skillet) and add the onion and garlic, then fry gently until the onions are limp and translucent (about 10 minutes). Add the mushrooms, wine tomato purée, sugar and bouquet garni with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Cook, uncovered, for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Leave to cool, then remove the bouquet garni.
- Transfer to a serving dish and chill until required, then serve with crisp, warm bread rolls.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
Prior to serving, sprinkle a little chopped parsley on top.
GRAHAM'S WINE RECOMMENDATION:
Zinfandel like Buehler Zinfandel. The Zinfandel grape has been a cornerstone of the California viticulture scene for 150 years, creating medium to full bodied wines that go well with mushrooms and hearty dishes such as roast venison.

January 27 2015 I never had these before, even though I'd heard of them. So I thought I'd give them a try and they were really nice. Tasty and fresh and virtually no calories of course. I'll be doing these agin now I know what I'm doing! (They were great with a warm baguette) Natalie (1 review) |
