MUSHROOMS WITH ROASTED CORN AND MARJORAM



Mushrooms with Roasted Corn and Marjoram image

The combination of sweet, lightly smoked corn and rich, earthy mushrooms is one of the great flavor marriages of Mexican food. In this filling, inspired by one of my favorite salsa recipes in The Great Salsa Book, the fresh corn kernels are dry-roasted to capture the sweet corn flavor and infuse them with an appetizing, smoky perfume. Dry roasting is one of the great culinary techniques that give Mexican cuisine its distinctiveness and meaning, and one easily mastered at home. Very simply and effectively, it intensifies and concentrates flavors and imparts the smoky, primordial quality that is characteristic of so many Mexican dishes. Beyond corn, the technique is also used for garlic, tomatoes, and onions, for fresh and dried chiles, and for seeds and nuts.

Yield makes 6 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 medium poblano chiles, oil-roasted, peeled, cored, and seeded (page 154)
3 tablespoons (or more) butter
6 ounces portobello mushrooms (preferably small, with fresh, closed gills), cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices with stems
1 1/2 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup fresh corn kernels, dry-roasted (page 157)
1 tablespoon olive oil (preferably Spanish)
1 teaspoon chipotle puree (page 153)
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons loosely packed chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh marjoram
8 (5 1/2-inch) soft white corn tortillas (page 13), for serving
Garnish: Julienned fresh basil or toasted pine nuts (page 164)

Steps:

  • Cut the prepared poblano chiles into 1/4-inch-thick strips (rajas); set aside.
  • Preheat a heavy skillet large enough to hold the mushrooms in a single layer for about 2 minutes over medium-high heat. Melt the butter in the pan, then add the mushrooms, garlic, salt, and pepper, and sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown and caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the corn, olive oil, chipotle puree, lime juice, cilantro, and marjoram. Serve immediately or keep warm in the pan until ready to serve.
  • To serve, lay the tortillas side by side, open face and overlapping on a platter. Divide the filling equally between the tortillas and top with salsa and basil. Grab, fold, and eat right away. Or build your own taco: lay a tortilla, open face, in one hand. Spoon on some filling, top with salsa and basil, fold, and eat right away.

Tips:

  • To maximize flavor, select vibrant green broccoli florets and plump, tender corn kernels.
  • For optimal steaming results, use a steamer basket or colander that fits snugly inside your pot, ensuring the vegetables are elevated above the boiling water.
  • To enhance the taste of your vegetables, consider adding a pinch of salt or a drizzle of olive oil before steaming. Alternatively, you can add herbs, spices, or a dash of lemon juice for a zesty twist.
  • For added convenience, use frozen broccoli and corn. Simply thaw them before steaming to save time and effort.
  • Steamed broccoli and corn can be enjoyed as a side dish, incorporated into salads, stir-fries, or pasta dishes, or transformed into a delicious soup.

Conclusion:

Steamed broccoli and corn is a simple yet delightful dish that offers a burst of vibrant flavors and essential nutrients. With its ease of preparation and versatility, this recipe is a perfect choice for health-conscious individuals and those seeking a quick and satisfying meal. Whether served as a standalone side dish or incorporated into a more elaborate culinary creation, steamed broccoli and corn is sure to impress and nourish.
