Categories     appetizer

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 cups canned low-salt chicken broth
1/2-ounce dried porcini mushrooms
1/4 cup unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups finely chopped onions
10 ounces white mushrooms, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups Arborio rice or short-grain white rice
2/3 cup dry white wine
3/4 cup frozen peas, thawed
2/3 cup grated Parmesan
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, optional

Steps:

  • Bring the broth to a simmer in a heavy medium saucepan. Add the porcini mushrooms. Set aside until the mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Keep the broth warm over very low heat.
  • Melt the butter in a heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add olive oil. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 8 minutes. Add the white mushrooms and garlic. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the porcini mushrooms to a cutting board. Finely chop the mushrooms and add to the saucepan. Saute until the mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate, about 5 minutes. Stir in the rice and let it toast for a few minutes. Add the wine; cook until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Add 1 cup of hot broth; simmer over medium-low heat until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook until the rice is just tender and the mixture is creamy, adding more broth by cupfuls and stirring often, about 28 minutes (the rice will absorb 6 to 8 cups of broth). Stir in the peas. Mix in the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

CHEESY SPäTZLE WITH MUSHROOMS AND PEAS



Cheesy Spätzle with Mushrooms and Peas image

Spätzle is a German-Austrian version of fresh pasta and something Austrian chef Wolfgang Ban grew up eating with his grandmother. This delicious version, with spring vegetables, Gruyère, and crème fraîche, comes together in just 30 minutes.

Provided by Wolfgang Ban

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 large egg yolks
4 large eggs
kosher salt
1 pinch nutmeg, freshly ground, if possible
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Water
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, divided, or another neutral oil, such as vegetable or canola
1/2 shallot
1/2 cup fresh peas, blanched, place peas in salted, boiling water for 1 minute, then an ice bath for 1 minute; drain
4 morel mushrooms, about ½-¾ cup sliced, depending on size
Freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch nutmeg, freshly ground, if possible
Juice from ½ lemon, about 1 tablespoon
1/4 cup Water
1/4 cup crème fraîche
1 cup grated Gruyère cheese, may substitute Swiss cheese
chives, small handful; about 2 tablespoons finely chopped

Steps:

  • Spätzle: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add 4 egg yolks and 4 whole eggs, along with a pinch of salt. Mix on medium-high until combined, 10 seconds. Turn off mixer and add nutmeg to the eggs, then flour. Start mixing on slow, then on medium-high until combined, 20 seconds. Check the consistency and add water to thin, a tablespoon at a time; continue mixing until the dough is smooth and thick. Switch to a whisk attachment, then turn to high to continue to smooth out the lumps while creating viscosity in the dough, 1 more minute. When you're done, the dough should be the consistency of thick pancake batter.
  • Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl. Set aside. To the boiling water, add a large pinch salt and a tablespoon of grapeseed oil. Set the spätzle-maker on top of the pot and add two ladles of batter; push the batter through into the water. Once the water begins boiling again, stir the spätzle a few times to prevent clumping and to finish cooking, 1 more minute. When the spätzle is floating on the water and fluffy, remove to the ice bath to stop the cooking. Once cool (about a minute), use a spider strainer to remove from the ice bath. Place in a bowl and stir in a ½ tablespoon oil to prevent sticking. Set aside. Repeat with remaining batter. (At this point, you can freeze the fully cooked spätzle in an airtight container. Bring to room temperature before using. Makes about 3 cups.)
  • Assemble dish: Heat a medium skillet over high heat. Add ½ tablespoon oil. Mince the shallot and add to the pan. Trim mushroom stems, slice mushrooms in half and add to the shallots, followed by peas, a pinch of salt, a few grinds of pepper, and another pinch of nutmeg. Stir and saute 30 seconds. Add lemon juice, water, crème fraîche, and 2 cups spätzle. Bring to a simmer so the water evaporates and the crème fraîche coats the spätzle and vegetables, 30 seconds. Add cheese; stir to melt and incorporate into the dish, 1 minute more. Meanwhile, finely chop the chives and add to the dish. Stir or toss to combine. Taste to adjust seasoning, and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Remove from heat and serve immediately.

DIRTY RICE WITH MUSHROOMS



Dirty Rice With Mushrooms image

This vegetarian version of Southern dirty rice replaces the traditional ground beef and chicken livers with hearty mushrooms, creamy black-eyed peas and flavorful spices for a satisfying one-pot meal. The recipe starts with the classic Cajun holy trinity - onion, green bell pepper and celery in equal parts - to create a flavorful foundation. Mushroom broth adds even more depth and reinforces the earthy cremini mushrooms, while a drizzle of hot sauce adds tang and kick. Serve with simple leafy greens or chopped salad.

Categories     dinner, weeknight, grains and rice, main course, side dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup neutral oil, such as safflower or canola
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal) and black pepper
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, trimmed and finely chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 cups long-grain white rice
2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
3 cups store-bought or homemade mushroom broth
1 (15-ounce can) black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, plus more for garnish
Hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium. Add onion, celery and bell pepper, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and their liquid is absorbed, 5 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, 1 minute.
  • Add rice, Cajun seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper and the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Stir until well blended, then add broth, scraping bottom of pot to remove any browned bits. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Scatter black-eyed peas on top in an even layer, cover and cook 3 minutes longer. Turn off heat.
  • Add scallions to the pot, and fluff rice with a fork. Divide among bowls and garnish with more scallions. Serve with hot sauce.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. This is especially true for the cheese, mushrooms, and peas.
  • Don't overcook the rice. Rice should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked rice will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Use a variety of mushrooms. Different mushrooms have different flavors and textures, so using a variety will add depth and complexity to the dish.
  • Don't be afraid to add your own seasonings. The recipe is a starting point, so feel free to add more or less of any seasoning to taste.
  • Serve immediately. This dish is best served hot, so it's important to time the cooking of the rice, mushrooms, and peas so that they are all ready at the same time.

Conclusion:

Cheesy rice with mushrooms and peas is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover rice. The combination of cheese, mushrooms, and peas is a classic, and the addition of garlic and herbs adds a lot of flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
