Shaved Asparagus With Mushrooms And Parmesan Frico Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Trim the woody ends from the asparagus. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the asparagus lengthwise into strips (if using Brussel sprouts, use a knife or mandoline to shave the sprouts).
• In a large bowl, gently toss the shaved asparagus with 2 tablespoons olive oil and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Pour the asparagus mixture into a 12-inch cast-iron skillet and loosely arrange a "nest." Roast until slightly browned and softened, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the cubed bread and toss to coat in the olive oil. Allow the bread to toast evenly, tossing often, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the garlic to perfume the oil and bread. Remove the bread from the pan to a cutting board and roughly chop the bread pieces. Toss with the grated Parmesan and black pepper, to taste.
• Top the asparagus with the breadcrumbs. Garnish with more grated Parmesan.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Spray two roasting pans with cooking spray. Roughly chop reserved stems of portobello and shiitake; transfer to one pan. Arrange mushroom caps in second pan. Roast both pans 15 to 20 minutes until juices have been released. Remove pan with mushroom caps from oven, and set aside. Remove pan with stems, add white wine, and cook, stirring, over high heat 2 to 3 minutes; set aside.
• Place porcini mushrooms in saucepan. Pour stems and liquid from roasting pan into saucepan. Add 4 cups water and 4 sprigs thyme. Cover; simmer 45 minutes. Strain through fine sieve lined with dampened cheesecloth. Press down on solids with spatula to rid mushrooms of excess liquid. Set aside. Discard solids.
• Cut portobello caps in half; reserve. Slice potatoes into four-inch-long strips one-inch wide; set aside in cold water.
• Spray bottom of large skillet with cooking spray. Add shallots and garlic; cover, and saute over medium heat, turning, until brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Add reserved broth, remaining 4 sprigs thyme, salt, pepper, all reserved caps, and collected juices. Drain potatoes; add to broth. Simmer, covered, until potatoes and shallots are soft, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring once.
