Mushroom sauté ingredients:
1 Lb wild mushrooms (chanterelles, cêpes)*
2 Lb cultivated mushrooms (shiitakes, oysters)*
1 Lb white onion, chopped
1 Oz garlic, finely minced
¼ Lb butter
* Mushrooms must be thoroughly washed or soaked in water as many times as
it takes to get rid of all grit. If necessary, slit them so the grit is easier
to wash away!
Other ingredients:
8 Lb Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and sliced ¼” thick
fresh marjoram (4 sprigs)
salt and pepper
1 Lb whole butter, cut into 1 - 2 oz chunks
warm water
garlic-parsley picada
Cook all mushroom sauté ingredients together on low-medium heat until the
onions are very soft (but not brown). Add the sliced potatoes, marjoram, salt,
pepper and butter, stir carefully until potatoes are well coated, then add water
to barely cover. Simmer until potatoes are completely cooked, but not falling
apart; the water should evaporate so that when potatoes are cooked they are
still very moist. Sprinkle with a little picada and serve. |
