MUSHROOM AND POTATO PAPRIKASH



Mushroom and Potato Paprikash image

This recipe is a vegetarian adaptation of chicken paprikash, a classic dish in Hungary, where there are many regional and cultural variations. This version is not at all traditional, though mushrooms are common in Hungarian cooking. To make this dish doable on a weeknight, par-cook the potatoes while you're searing the mushrooms. If time is not an issue, you can skip that step, but it will increase the lid-on cooking time to about 30 minutes in Step 2. Avoid washing your mushrooms, which makes them less likely to sear. Instead, wipe off any dirt with a damp cloth. Meaty trumpet mushrooms add a wonderful texture in the stew, but you can use any mushrooms you like, including all-purpose creminis. This recipe can also be made in an Instant Pot. To get vegetarian recipes like this one delivered to your inbox, sign up for The Veggie newsletter.

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more as needed
2 pounds mushrooms, such as trumpet or cremini, tough stems removed, halved if larger than 2 inches
1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed and chopped into 1-inch pieces
Salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 large yellow or red onion, chopped
8 garlic cloves, smashed and chopped
2 tablespoons sweet paprika, preferably Hungarian
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 cup vegetable stock
1 (14-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 cup sour cream, at room temperature
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ cup chopped fresh dill or 2 teaspoons dried dill
½ cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Warm the oil in a Dutch oven over high heat. Add half the mushrooms, season with salt, and brown for 5 minutes, stirring once or twice. Meanwhile, spread the potatoes on a plate or a shallow bowl and microwave for 3 to 5 minutes; they should be about halfway cooked, not fully. (If you don't have a microwave, you can parcook in salted boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes instead.) Transfer the first batch of mushrooms to a plate, add a little more oil if the pan is dry, and brown the second batch the same way, seasoning with salt and transferring them to the plate when done.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-high. Add the butter to the pot, then the onion. Season with salt and cook for 3 minutes, stirring, until the onion just begins to soften. Add the garlic and cook for 2 more minutes, until the onion is soft and the garlic is fragrant. Reduce the heat to low and add the sweet and smoked paprikas; stir well to combine the spices with the onion. Add the wine, increase the heat to medium and let it come to a simmer while you scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Add the vegetable stock and the crushed tomatoes, then the potatoes and mushrooms, along with any liquid that accumulated on the plate. Season generously with black pepper. Increase the heat to high to bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cover the pot. Cook for 15 minutes.
  • Uncover the pot and cook for about 5 minutes more, until the potatoes are fully tender and the liquid has reduced a bit. Meanwhile, combine the sour cream and flour in a medium bowl, then whisk a few ladlefuls of the hot liquid into the sour cream mixture. Reduce the heat to low, then add the sour cream mixture and herbs to the pot. Stir well, and adjust the texture of the stew with up to ½ cup of water if it is too thick for your taste. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if you like.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more as needed
2 pounds mushrooms, such as trumpet or cremini, tough stems removed, halved if larger than 2 inches
Salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 large yellow or red onion, chopped
8 garlic cloves, smashed and chopped
2 tablespoons sweet paprika, preferably Hungarian
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 cup vegetable stock
1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed and chopped into 1- to 2-inch pieces
1 cup sour cream, at room temperature
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (14-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped dill or 2 teaspoons dried dill
1/2 cup chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Turn on a 6- to 8-quart electric pressure cooker and select the sauté setting (on the more, or hot, setting, if you have it). Add the vegetable oil, then half of the mushrooms. Season with salt, and brown for about 5 minutes, stirring once or twice. Remove the first batch of mushrooms and place on a plate. Add a little more oil if the pot is dry, and brown the second batch the same way, seasoning with salt and transferring the mushrooms to the plate when done.
  • Add the butter to the pot, then the onion. Season with salt and cook for 2 minutes, stirring, until the onion just begins to soften. Add the garlic, and cook for 1 minute more, until the garlic is fragrant. Add the sweet and smoked paprikas; stir well to combine the spices with the onion. Add the wine and carefully scrape up all the browned bits on the bottom of the pot with a spatula. Add the vegetable stock, then the potatoes and mushrooms, along with any accumulated liquid on the plate. Season generously with black pepper. Turn off the sauté setting. Close the lid and twist the pressure knob to seal. Cook on high pressure for 2 minutes.
  • Turn off the pressure cooker and quick-release the pressure by carefully turning the pressure knob to venting. While the steam releases, combine the sour cream with the flour in a medium bowl. Uncover the pot and stir in the crushed tomatoes. Whisk a few ladlefuls of the hot liquid into the sour cream mixture. Add the sour cream mixture and the herbs to the pot. Stir well, and adjust the texture of the stew with up to ½ cup of water if it is too thick for your taste. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if you like.

Tips:

  • Use the right mushrooms. Fresh, meaty mushrooms like cremini or portobello mushrooms are best for this dish. Avoid using delicate mushrooms like oyster mushrooms or shiitake mushrooms, as they will break down too much in the cooking process.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the mushrooms, make sure to give them enough space in the pan so that they can brown properly. If you overcrowd the pan, the mushrooms will steam instead of brown, and they will end up with a mushy texture.
  • Use a good quality paprika. Paprika is the key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality paprika that has a deep, rich flavor. Look for Hungarian paprika, which is considered to be the best quality paprika in the world.
  • Don't skimp on the sour cream. Sour cream is what gives this dish its creamy, tangy flavor. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount of sour cream, as it will really make the dish sing.
  • Serve with a side of egg noodles or dumplings. Mushroom paprikash is traditionally served with a side of egg noodles or dumplings. This helps to soak up the delicious sauce and make the dish even more filling.

Conclusion:

Mushroom paprikash is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. It's also a great way to use up leftover mushrooms. With its rich, creamy sauce and tender mushrooms, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
