Time 1h30m

Yield Eight servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small onion, peeled and chopped
4 cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped
1 1/2 pounds portobello mushrooms, stemmed and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/4 cup Italian parsley, finely 'hopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup whole milk
3 eggs
Vegetable oil spray
8 strips thickly cut bacon
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 cup beef, veal or duck-and-veal demi-glace (see note)
8 cups arugula, tough stems removed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and cook for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Stir the salt, pepper, lemon zest, parsley, thyme and Parmesan into the mushrooms. In a large bowl, whisk together the cream, milk and eggs. Stir in the mushroom mixture. Spray 8 6-ounce ramekins with vegetable oil. Fill each with the custard and set in a large roasting pan.
  • Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake until set, about 55 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a heavy skillet over medium heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels, crumble and set aside. Pour the fat from the skillet. Add the vinegar and demi-glace and simmer over medium heat for 2 minutes, scraping up any bacon bits stuck to the pan.
  • Run the tip of a small knife around the edge of the ramekins to loosen the custards. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the sauce onto the center of 8 plates. Mound 1 cup of arugula in the center of each plate. Unmold the timbales onto the center of the arugula. Scatter the bacon around the timbales and serve at once.

I'm not a big fan of mushrooms, but I loved these timbales! The bacon and arugula really balance out the flavor of the mushrooms.

These timbales are a great make-ahead appetizer. I like to make them the day before and then just reheat them before serving.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my timbales didn't turn out well. They were dry and crumbly.

The timbales were a bit dry. I think I would add more butter or oil to the pan next time.

These timbales were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less bacon next time.
