Crispy Stuffed Mushrooms With Harissa And Apricots Recipes

CRISPY BRIE-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 ̊. Arrange the mushrooms cap-side up on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush with 1 tablespoon melted butter. Flip the mushrooms cap-side down and stuff a piece of brie inside each.
• Mix the panko, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Mix in the remaining 5 tablespoons melted butter. Spoon a little of the mixture on each mushroom.
• Bake until the mushrooms are softened around the edges, the cheese is melted and the tops are golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve straight out of the oven or at room temperature a little bit later.

CRISPY STUFFED MUSHROOMS WITH HARISSA AND APRICOTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Remove the mushroom stems from the caps and chop the stems.
• Place a medium skillet over medium heat, then add 2 tablespoons olive oil and let it warm up until it thins out, about 20 seconds. Add mushroom stems, onion and chile and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic, harissa, tomato paste, salt and cumin seeds and cook until the tomato paste darkens and the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons olive oil to the skillet. Stirring constantly, cook bread crumbs until lightly toasted, about 4 to 6 minutes. Keep an eye on the pan as the bread crumbs can burn quickly. Remove from heat and immediately scrape bread-crumb mixture into medium mixing bowl. Stir in 1/3 cup Parmesan, cilantro, dried apricots and lemon zest, tossing well. Taste and season with black pepper and more salt if needed.
• Place mushroom caps on a rimmed sheet pan, cavities facing up. Drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Using a spoon, stuff the oiled mushroom caps with the seasoned bread-crumb mixture.
• Sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan on mushrooms. Bake until the tops are crisp and golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve hot or warm, with lemon wedges for squeezing.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS WITH MASHED CANNELLINI BEANS AND HARISSA SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix roasted red pepper, shallot, garlic, 1 teaspoon olive oil, mint, lime juice, Dijon mustard, cilantro, 1/2 teaspoon salt, red pepper flakes, coriander, 1 pinch black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl to make harissa sauce.
• Combine cannellini beans and water in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Drain.
• Combine drained beans, 2 teaspoons truffle oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a food processor; puree until smooth.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Brush mushroom caps on both sides with 4 teaspoons olive oil; season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill mushrooms, gill-side up, basting frequently with vegetable broth, about 4 minutes per side.
• Top each mushroom cap with 1/2 cup bean puree and 2 tablespoons of harissa sauce.

SWEET AND SAVORY STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• For the mushrooms: If your mushroom caps are very rounded, trim a very thin slice from the top of the caps to help them sit upright for baking. Toss the mushroom caps with the olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
• For the filling: Heat the butter over medium-high heat. Add the reserved mushroom stems and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until just soft, 6 to 8 minutes. Scrape into another large bowl, season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and set aside to cool.
• Add the bacon, provolone, apricots and walnuts to the cooled mushroom stem mixture. Stir in the breadcrumbs until well moistened.
• Pack each mushroom with an equal amount of filling and transfer the filled mushrooms to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is brown and crispy on top, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before removing from the baking sheet.
