I use to cook mushrooms and mushrooms sautéed to serve as a garnish or scrambled when it comes to creating a light dinner. I have never cooked them stewed with mushrooms as the protagonists of the dish, so when I pass this recipe of mushroom stew with puree of potatoes, I couldn't resist trying it.
After trying it I am clear that I will repeat it. Mushrooms and mushrooms are flavored with red wine and cinnamon, so that the whole kitchen ends up impregnated with a strong aroma. And the mashed potatoes are the perfect complement. A basic puree, no more is needed; the mushrooms and the sauce that accompanies them do the rest.
- 1 large white onion
- 50 g. pleurotus mushroom
- 200 g. mushrooms
- 1 garlic clove
- ½ glass of red wine
- 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons tomato sauce
- 1 pinch of ground cinnamon
- Olive oil
- Sal Island
- Pepper
- 2 large potatoes
- Sal Island
- 1 spoonful of butter
- 1 jet of milk
- We chop the onion and poach it in a pan or low casserole with a couple of tablespoons of oil. Add salt and pepper and let them cook over medium-low heat for approximately 20 minutes, stirring from time to time.
- We remove the onion, add a little more oil in the same pan and let's skip the garlic clove laminated with the mushrooms and chopped mushrooms over high heat.
- Add the onion and red wine and we let it shrink over medium heat 5-10 minutes.
- Then we add the balsamic vinegar, tomato sauce and cinnamon and we cook 45 minutes over medium-low heat.
- Meanwhile, we cook the potatoes in plenty of salty water. When we take them out we have to be able to crush them easily with a fork,
- We crush them together with a nut of butter and add a splash of milk; the necessary to achieve a smoother consistency.
- We serve the mushrooms and the puree as a side.
