SAVOURY FRENCH TOAST WITH MUSHROOMS



Savoury French Toast with Mushrooms image

Savoury French toast with mushrooms puts a fancy spin on eggs and toast but is an absolute breeze to make. Choose a wholegrain bread (can be gluten free), add a sprinkle of parmesan, and load it up with herby mushrooms. It's a healthier breakfast delight!

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 eggs
120 mL milk of choice ((make sure it's unsweetened))
25 grams finely grated Parmesan cheese (plus extra to serve if desired)
4 thick slices bread
200-250 grams mushrooms, sliced ((cup or portobello mushrooms work well))
1 small bunch chives
extra virgin olive oil (or other preferred fat for frying)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to about 50 C; you can keep the toast and mushrooms in there to stay warm while you prepare everything.
  • Whisk together eggs and milk, seasoning with a little salt and pepper. Pour mixture into a shallow dish so you can dip the bread in easily. Add in most of the parmesan cheese, reserving a little to sprinkle on the toast slices while they're frying.
  • Heat a non-stick pan up to a moderate-to-low heat. Add 2 teaspoons of olive oil to the pan.
  • Dip a slice of bread into the egg mixture, flipping it over so both sides are soaked. I like to let it sit for about 15 seconds on each side, to make sure the egg mixture is soaked in. Pick up the bread and let the excess drip off for a moment. There should be some parmesan stuck to the bread. Pop the bread into the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until dark golden brown. While the bread is cooking, sprinkle over some of the remaining parmesan so you get a lovely extra bit of crisped-up parmesan on the outside. If the bread browns too quickly, reduce the stove temperature.
  • Repeat the cooking process with the remaining slices of bread, and keep the slices in the oven to stay warm while you're cooking.
  • While the bread is cooking, take a second pan and add 2 tsp olive oil. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until softened. Towards the end of the cooking process, season with salt, pepper and some chopped chives.
  • Once everything is ready, serve the French toast with the sliced mushrooms on top, and garnish with extra chives. Add extra parmesan, and a little drizzle of olive oil, if desired.

CREAMY MUSHROOMS ON TOASTED COUNTRY BREAD



Creamy Mushrooms on Toasted Country Bread image

Categories     Milk/Cream     Wine     Dairy     Mushroom     Appetizer     Sauté     Vegetarian     Lunch     White Wine     Fall     Spring     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 4 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ounce dried morel mushrooms
1 cup boiling water
1 pound button mushrooms, trimmed and wiped clean, and thinly sliced
1 cup buttery white wine, such as an Arbois or a light Chardonnay
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
One-half cup crème fraîche or heavy, non ultra-pasteurized cream
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 good-sized (about 6 x 4 inches) slices of freshly baked, crusty bread
Chervil sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Place the dried morels in a medium-sized bowl and pour the water over them. Let sit for 1 hour, then lift the mushrooms from the soaking water, and strain the water if necessary through several thicknesses of cheesecloth. Reserve the soaking liquid.
  • 2. Place the morels and the button mushrooms in a medium-sized, heavy bottomed saute pan, pour the wine over them and place over medium-high heat. Cook the mushrooms in the wine, which should remain at a vigorous boil, stirring from time to time so they cook evenly, until all but about 1 tablespoon of the wine has evaporated, and the mushrooms are still moist, not dry which will take 8 to 10 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, add the butter to the mushrooms and stir until it has melted, then sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir constantly for about two minutes, so the flour is completely mixed into the mushrooms. Add the mushroom cooking liquid and stir until it is thoroughly blended with the ingredients in the pan and has begun to thicken, about 4 minutes. Stir in the crème fraîche and cook until it is thickened and completely incorporated into the ingredients and the mushrooms are tender though not completely limp, 4 to 5 minutes. Taste for seasoning.
  • 3. While the mushrooms are cooking, toast the bread lightly on each side, and place two pieces on each of four plates. Pour equal amounts of mushrooms and sauce over the bread. Garnish the plates with the chervil, and serve immediately.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 38

1 (1/4 ounce) packet active dry yeast
2 tablespoons whole milk, warm
2 cups bread flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3 eggs, lightly beaten
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 slices brioche bread (from recipe above)
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
1 cup margarine or 1 cup butter
4 foie gras, medallions one-inch-thick each, raw, fresh (never frozen)
salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons shallots, minced
2 cups assorted wild mushrooms, trimmed and wiped clean
1/4 cup port wine
1 cup duck stock or 1 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leave
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1 -2 tablespoon minced black truffle
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup finely diced wild mushroom
1/2 cup asparagus
2 tablespoons late harvest riesling vinegar
1/2 cup dry red wine
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1 bunch mache, washed
1 teaspoon black truffle oil
4 slices brioche bread
fresh truffle, shavings (optional)
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground high-quality sea salt

Steps:

  • For Brioche: Sprinkle yeast over milk in large mixing bowl; let stand 5 minutes. Combine flour, sugar and salt, beat in alternately with eggs and blend until dough is very smooth and elastic. (For best results, use standard mixer with a paddle attachment, mixing for approximately 10-15 minutes total.) Beat in butter, a tablespoon at a time, until well incorporated (dough will be very soft and sticky); continue to mix for 3 minutes more. Remove dough from bowl and shape into a ball. Transfer to a large buttered bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, approximately 2 hours. Punch down, reshape into a ball, cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • After refrigeration, preheat oven to 375°F Turn dough out onto lightly floured board; quickly form into loaf shape. Place dough in buttered 8x4-inch loaf pan; let stand at room temperature 20 to 30 minutes, or until dough just begins to soften (dough will rise slightly).
  • Transfer dough to oven, lower the temperature to 350°F and bake until golden brown and loaf sounds hollow when tapped, about 50 minutes. Let cool for several minutes, unmold while still warm and transfer to a wire rack to cool to room temperature.
  • For Brioche French Toast:.
  • Mix egg, milk, vanilla and cinnamon in a bowl with a fork. Melt the margarine in a pan large enough for all 4 slices of toast/brioche. Dip each slice of brioche/toast into the egg mixture. Fry in the pan until golden and crunchy.
  • For Foie Gras with Wild Mushroom Mixture:.
  • For the fricassee: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over moderate heat. Add the shallot and sauté until the shallots are softened. Add the mushrooms and continue to sauté until the mushrooms are tender and start to caramelize, about 12-15 minutes. Add the port wine and reduce until the wine is almost evaporated. Add the stock and fresh thyme and simmer until reduced to a sauce consistency, approximately 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Keep warm.
  • For the Asparagus-Mushroom mix:.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the wild mushroom and sauté until lightly caramelized, about 8 minutes. Add the Asparagus and sauté, about 5 minutes. Add the vinegar, cook 1 minute and then add the red wine and simmer until the mixture has a jam-like, syrupy consistency, about 7-10 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
  • To assemble:.
  • Heat a medium sauté pan over medium heat. Season the foie gras medallions with salt and pepper. Place the medallions in the pan and cook, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2 minutes on each side (keeping rare). Take care not to burn the medallions and lower the heat if they brown too fast. Remove the medallions and pour out all but 1 tablespoon of the fat. Add the cooked mushroom fricassee and heat through.
  • Place slice of brioche in the middle of a warmed plate.
  • Add a nice spoon of mushroom fricassee in the middle of the brioche and spread.
  • Lightly coat the mache with the truffle oil and place on top of the fricassee.
  • Place a small scoop of the Asparagus-Mushroom mix on top of the fricassee.
  • Then put the sautéed foie gras on top of everything.
  • Sprinkle with a little high-quality sea salt and shave a little truffle (if available) over the mache.
  • Serve immediately.
