Stewed Exotic Mushrooms With Gnocchi Port Wine Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For gnocchi:
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Pierce potatoes with fork. Bake until tender, about 1 hour. Cool slightly; cut potatoes in half and scoop pulp into large bowl. Mash potatoes well. Mix in egg yolk, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Mix in enough flour to form firm, slightly elastic dough. Turn out onto lightly floured surface. Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Gently roll 1 portion between hands and work surface to form 1/2-inch-thick rope about 18 inches long. Cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Roll each piece over tines of dinner fork to make grooves in gnocchi. Arrange gnocchi in single layer on floured baking sheet. Repeat with remaining 3 portions of dough.
• Working in small batches, cook gnocchi in large pot of boiling salted water until gnocchi rise to top and are tender, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer gnocchi to large baking pan. (Gnocchi can be prepared ahead. Let stand 1 hour at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate up to 2 days.)
• For mushroom sauce:
• Cook butter and olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat until butter begins to brown, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and shallots and sauté until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add stock and sage; simmer until liquid is slightly reduced, about 8 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Add gnocchi to sauce in skillet and cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Add arugula and stir until wilted. Divide equally among bowls. Drizzle with truffle oil, if desired. Sprinkle with cheese.

Steps:

• Brush the mushrooms to remove any loose dirt and trim away the stems of those, like shiitakes, that have tough stems. Thickly slice the mushrooms if they are large and set aside.
• In a large skillet set over high heat, combine the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter. When very hot, add the garlic and cook until it just begins to turn golden, about 1 minute. Immediately add the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper and cook, stirring, until the mushrooms just begin to become tender, about 3 minutes. Add the wine, pepper flakes and tomato paste and cook, stirring, until about 1/2 the liquid has evaporated. Cover the skillet and cook for 5 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, cook the gnocchi according to directions and drain. Place in a serving bowl or on a platter. Stir the remaining tablespoon of butter into the mushrooms and season to taste with salt. Top the gnocchi with the mushrooms and garnish with chives. Serve immediately with grated Parmesan on the side.

Steps:

• Slice mushrooms fairly thickly.
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan.
• Stir in the garlic, after about 2 minutes, the mushrooms.
• Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Season with salt& pepper, and stir in the parsley.
• Cook for 5 minutes more, and serve at once.

Steps:

• Cook gnocchi according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large cast-iron skillet, saute mushrooms and onion in butter until tender., Drain gnocchi. Add the gnocchi, salt, Italian seasoning and pepper flakes to the skillet; heat through. Sprinkle with cheese.
