Mini Bacon And Mushroom Pies Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and fry until soft. Stir in the garlic and mushrooms, season and cook for 5 mins until the mushrooms are soft. Stir in the parsley and cream. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Grease a 6-hole muffin tin with butter, then line each hole with a long thin strip of baking parchment. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and stamp out 6 x 10 cm circles. Press a circle into each hole to line. Roll out the remaining pastry (you may need to re-roll trimmings) and stamp out 6 x 8cm circles.
• Divide the mushroom mix between the pies. Brush the pastry edges with a little egg, top each with a pastry lid and carefully press the pastry edges together to seal.
• Brush with the remaining egg and sprinkle with caraway seeds. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden. Allow to cool in the tin slightly before serving, or cool on a wire rack and keep in airtight containers for up to 1 day. Reheat before serving.

Steps:

• In 12-inch skillet, cook bacon over medium heat for 4 to 6 minutes until crisp; drain on paper towels. Cook mushrooms and onion in 2 tablespoons bacon drippings over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until tender. In small bowl, combine bacon, mushrooms and onion. Set aside.
• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray large cookie sheet with cooking spray.
• In food processor with metal blade, place flour and cheese. Cover; process using quick on-and- off motions, until well mixed. Add butter; process until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Add cream cheese and egg yolks, continue to process just until blended and dough begins to form a ball.
• On floured surface, knead dough 10 times. Roll dough until 1/4-inch thick. Cut into 16 rounds with floured 4- inch round cutter.
• Spoon about 1 tablespoon bacon mixture onto each round. Fold each in half; seal edges with fork tines. Place on cookie sheet. Brush each pocket with beaten egg; sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, onion and bacon; cook & stir for about 5 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
• Reduce the heat to medium, and add the cream and dill; cook and stir for about 10 more minutes. Remove from the heat, & stir in the cheese.
• Place one sheet of puff pastry on a well-oiled baking sheet, and pour the mushroom filling over the top. Cover with the other sheet, and press the edges together to seal. Make some holes in the top with a fork. Brush the top with beaten egg.
• Bake for about 40 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and mist with cooking spray.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry into a 14-inch square and cut into four 7-inch squares. Brush the center of each with mustard and season with salt and pepper. Place the mushrooms gill-side up on the pastry and season with salt and pepper.
• Toss the breadcrumbs and cheese in a bowl and sprinkle over the mushrooms. Fold in the pastry edges, pleating to fully cover the mushrooms; press to seal. Brush both sides of the pastry with the beaten egg. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet, make slits in the top and bake until golden and crisp, 25 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, combine the shallot, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl, then whisk in the olive oil. Toss the dressing with the salad greens and pear. Serve the salad with the mushroom pies.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a saucepan or large flameproof casserole dish. Fry the onions for 10 mins until soft, then add the mushrooms and bacon and fry for another 5 mins until golden. Stir in the flour and cook for 2 mins more. Gradually pour in the stock, then bring to the boil and bubble for 2 mins. Add the kale and cook for another 5 mins, then stir in the mustard, crème fraîche, half the tarragon and the lemon juice. Spoon the mushroom mixture into four small baking dishes.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put the butter beans in a food processor with the remaining oil and tarragon and the lemon zest. Blitz until chunky, adding 2-3 tbsp water to loosen if needed.
• Spoon the butter bean mixture over the filling, smoothing with the back of a spoon. Bake for 20-25 mins until golden. Leave to cool slightly, then serve.
