Mushrooms with Sherry and Cream (gf)
These rich and earthy mushrooms are cooked in a creamy garlic and sherry sauce. They’re wonderful served on buttery polenta but equally delicious served on toast!
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 shallots, peeled
800 grams mixed mushrooms (such as white button, portobello, shiitake)
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
50ml sherry
150ml chicken stock
100ml cream
10 sage leaves
½ teaspoon cracked pepper
sea salt
POLENTA
1 cup quick cooking polenta
40 grams butter
70 grams parmesan cheese, finely grated
sea salt
Preheat the oven to 160°C regular bake.
Heat the butter and oil in a large ovenproof sauté pan over a medium heat. Add the shallots and fry until softened. Reduce the heat then add the mushrooms and allow them to soften. Add the garlic and fry for 2 minutes then add the sherry, chicken stock
