Crispy Polenta With Wild Mushrooms
- 1/2 pound wild mushrooms in season (I used 1/4 pound morels + 1/4 pound chanterelles)
- 1 pound prepared polenta (I let harden to form a square)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup vegetable or chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
- 1/8 cup shaved or grated parmesan
- salt and pepper to taste
- Egg over easy (optional)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Heat the olive oil. Slice the polenta and crisp on both sides, while flattening the slices on the stove. This takes about 10 minutes per side. Set aside.
- Melt butter in a pan and saute the mushrooms in the butter for about 5 minutes and let the juice release.
- Take mushrooms out of the pan and add flour.
- Stir until mix above has thickened.
- Add the broth, let thicken and reduce heat.
- Add the cream and cheese and stir.
- Add the mushrooms back to the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour the mushroom sauce on top of the polenta.
- In a separate pan, fry an egg so that the yolk remains runny and top off the polenta dish. Add black pepper as desired.
