Pork, Sweet Potato and Shiitake Mushroom Ramen image

Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces ground lean pork
2 cups small-diced sweet potatoes
1 cup sliced shiitake mushrooms
2 teaspoons grated ginger
3 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon mirin
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
2 packages ramen noodles (throw out the seasoning packets!)
4 eggs, over easy or poached
Sriracha, for garnish
Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven or stockpot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until brown, using a wooden spoon to break it up. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the pork to a paper towel-lined plate. Add the sweet potatoes and saute until beginning to become tender, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the mushrooms, ginger and garlic and cook until the mushrooms release their water and begin to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the chicken broth, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Add the soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, brown sugar, celery seed and browned pork. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and let simmer 15 minutes. Add the ramen noodles. Simmer until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Serve in a bowl with an egg on top. Garnish with Sriracha and cilantro.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons safflower or grapeseed oil
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
4 bone-in pork chops (1 1/4-inch thick)
Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
1/2 pound small shiitake mushrooms, stemmed

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mustards, 1/2 cup of oil and sherry vinegar until thoroughly blended. Set aside.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon remaining oil. Meanwhile, season pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Set aside to absorb the seasoning for a few minutes.
  • When the oil begins to smoke, add the shiitake mushrooms to the pan, brown side down, in a single layer. Cook, undisturbed, for 3 to 5 minutes over medium heat until the caps are seared all over. Using kitchen tongs, turn mushrooms on their other side and cook for a few more minutes until golden. Transfer mushrooms to a plate and set aside. Wipe skillet of any excess oil with a wad of paper towels and set over medium heat once again.
  • Add remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the skillet. When it begins to smoke, add the pork chops in a single layer (you may have to do this in two batches). Cook the pork chops over high heat until the first side is browned, 6 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness. Flip over the pork chops and place the skillet in the center of the oven. Cook for an additional 6 to 8 minutes or until done to taste. Remove the skillet from the oven and allow the pork chops to rest, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Arrange the pork chops on a serving platter. Top with mustard vinaigrette and mushrooms. Serve immediately.

PORK AND SHIITAKE MUSHROOM RAGU



Pork and Shiitake Mushroom Ragu image

Italian, paleo, omg, ragù! This was simply amazing. We are at our lake house for the summer and our friends came over. I had a super busy day and while at the butcher deciding what to make, the pork butt looked amazing. I did serve this dish with a creamy polenta. I am Italian! What can I say... if you want to keep it paleo, then serve with sauteed vegetables or sauteed garlic spinach (I do that a lot). This freezes well and taste even better the next day! You can also prepare this meal in your slow cooker.

BAKED POLENTA WITH SHIITAKE RAGOûT



Baked Polenta with Shiitake Ragoût image

Categories     Garlic     Mushroom     Onion     Appetizer     Bake     Mozzarella     Parmesan     Cornmeal     Red Wine     Winter     Gourmet     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 20

For the mushroom ragout
1 large onion, chopped fine
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound white mushrooms, sliced thin
1 pound fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded and if large, the caps quartered
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup dry red wine
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/3 cups beef broth
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
For the polenta:
6 cups water
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1/3 cup minced fresh parsley leaves
1/4 pound mozzarella, diced fine (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Make the mushroom ragout:
  • In a large deep skillet cook the onion, the garlic, and the rosemary in the oil over moderate heat, stirring, until the onion is softened, add the mushrooms and salt to taste, and cook the mixture over moderately high heat, stirring, for 10 minutes, or until the liquid the mushrooms give off is evaporated. Stir in the tomato paste and the wine and boil the mushroom mixture until most of the liquid is evaporated. In a small bowl stir the cornstarch into the broth, add the mixture and the Worcestershire sauce to the mushroom mixture, and bring the ragout to a boil, stirring. Simmer the ragout for 2 minutes and season it with salt and pepper.
  • Make the polenta:
  • In a large heavy saucepan bring the water with the oil to a boil and add 1 cup of the cornmeal, a little at a time, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to low, add the remaining 1 cup cornmeal in a slow stream, stirring constantly, and bring the mixture to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter, 2/3 cup of the Parmesan, the parsley, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Spread one third of the polenta evenly in a buttered 13- by 9-inch baking dish and chill the polenta sheet for 20 minutes, or until it is firm. While the polenta is chilling, working quickly, spread half the remaining polenta in a buttered 3-quart shallow baking dish, top it with half the mushroom ragout, and top the ragout with the mozzarella. Spread the remaining polenta quickly over the mozzarella and top it with the remaining ragout.
  • Invert the polenta sheet onto a work surface and with 1 or more star-shaped cutters cut out as many stars as possible. Arrange the stars decoratively on the ragout and sprinkle them with the remaining 1/3 cup Parmesan. The layered polenta may be prepared up to this point 2 days in advance and kept covered and chilled.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Bake the layered polenta in the upper third of the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the polenta stars are golden.

HERBED PORK WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS
