LAMB, MUSHROOM, AND BARLEY CASSEROLE



Lamb, Mushroom, and Barley Casserole image

Something to make when you have some leftover roast or shanks, this is a meal-in-one dish that can be eaten right from the individual small casserole dish it is baked in.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup barley
1 1/2 cups lamb broth (see headnote, page 199) or leftover lamb gravy or pan juice with water
2 teaspoons butter or vegetable oil
1 shallot, or 1/2 small onion, chopped fine
3 or 4 mushrooms, quartered
A splash of white wine
1/2-3/4 cup cooked lamb, cut into bite-sized pieces
Salt
Freshly ground pepper
A scattering of chopped fresh parsley mixed with a little savory or marjoram, fresh or dried
1 tablespoon breadcrumbs
A drizzle of olive oil

Steps:

  • Simmer the barley in a small pot with most of the lamb broth, checking occasionally to see that the liquid has not boiled away, and adding more as needed. After 35-40 minutes, most of the liquid should be absorbed and the barley tender. Set aside. Meanwhile, heat the butter or oil in a small pan, and sauté the shallot until wilted. Add the mushrooms, and cook for 3-4 minutes, tossing occasionally. Splash in some white wine, and cook to reduce a little. Fill the bottom of a one-serving casserole with half the barley, then the mushrooms and lamb pieces, and finally the rest of the barley, seasoning each layer with salt and pepper and the herbs. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top, and drizzle a little olive oil over it. Bake in a preheated 350° oven for 20 minutes.

Categories     Mushroom     Onion     Side     Bake     High Fiber     Casserole/Gratin     Barley     Winter     House & Garden     Sugar Conscious     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 pound mushrooms
4-5 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, chopped very fine
1 cup pearl barley
Salt, pepper
2-3 cups beef or chicken broth

Steps:

  • Slice the mushroom caps and chop the stems. Heat the butter in a skillet and add the chopped onion. Cook for 3 or 4 minutes and add the mushrooms. Cook another 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the barley and brown it lightly, mixing it well with the onions and mushrooms. Season to taste with salt and pepper and pour into a buttered casserole. Add enough boiling broth to cover the mixture and come 1/2" above it. Cover the casserole tightly and bake in a 350°F. oven for 25 minutes. Taste the barley for doneness. Add more broth, if necessary, and continue cooking until the liquid is absorbed and the barley tender. Serve as an accompaniment to duck, game, goose, squab and other kinds of poultry - wherever you would use wild rice.
  • Variations
  • Add finely slivered buttered almonds to the barley just before serving.
  • Cook chicken gizzards in a well-seasoned broth and use the broth to cook the barley. Add the thinly sliced gizzards at the last minute.
  • Add sautéd chicken livers and some chopped fresh parsley to the barley casserole just before serving.
  • Substitute 1/2 cup finely chopped green onions for the onion and add 1/4 cup finely chopped celery and 3/4 cup thinly sliced water chestnuts. Season the broth with a few dashes of soy sauce. Serve this oriental version of barley casserole topped with a sprinkling of chopped parsley.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use a combination of vegetable and chicken broth.
  • Add a splash of white wine to the broth for a more complex flavor.
  • If you don't have pearl barley, you can use medium-grain barley instead. Just adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • If you want a crispy topping, sprinkle some bread crumbs or grated Parmesan cheese over the casserole before baking.
  • Serve the casserole with a side of roasted vegetables or a salad.

Conclusion:

Barley and mushroom casserole is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a winter meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are a vegetarian or a meat-eater, you are sure to enjoy this delicious casserole.
