Shad Roe In Mushroom Cream Sauce Recipes

SHAD ROE IN MUSHROOM CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Rinse and drain the shad roe. Put the roe in one layer in a skillet and add one-half cup milk, water to barely cover, bay leaf, parsley sprigs, salt and pepper.
• Bring to a boil and cover. Let simmer about three minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Heat two tablespoons butter in a saucepan and add the flour, stirring with a wire whisk. When blended and smooth, add the remaining half-cup of milk and three-quarters cup of the cooking liquid from the roe. Stir in the cream and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add nutmeg and cayenne pepper. Strain sauce through a sieve, pushing to extract all liquid from any solids. Reheat sauce.
• Heat remaining tablespoon of butter in a skillet and add mushrooms and lemon juice. Cook briefly, stirring, until mushrooms are wilted and lightly browned. Add shallots and stir. Add this mixture to the sauce.
• Transfer the drained roe to a serving dish. Pour the mushroom sauce over them and serve.

SHAD ROE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet. While foaming is subsiding, lightly dredge roe in flour and shake off excess. Add roe and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Turn over, and brown on the other side. Remove the roe to a plate. If necessary add more butter to the skillet. Add ginger and saute for a moment. Add lemon juice and remove from heat; season with salt and pepper, add parsley or chives and spoon over shad. Serve with lemon or lime wedges.

SHAD ROE WITH SORREL SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter for the sauce in a small pan. Drop in the sorrel leaves, and
• cook over medium heat, stirring now and then, until the liquid has evaporated.
• The sorrel will turn a khaki color, but don't let that bother you. Season with salt and pepper and just a tiny pinch of sugar. Pour in the cream, and cook for about 5 minutes, until thickened. Keep warm.
• Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons butter in a small skillet that will just hold the shad roe. Rub the milk over the roe, dredge in flour, season with salt and pepper, and slip the roe into the pan. Cook slowly for about 5 minutes, turning once. Arrange on a warm plate, and spoon the sauce around.

SHAD ROE PAN FRIED WITH BACON

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper. Dredge roe in seasoned flour. In a saute pan over medium heat, heat oil until hot. Add roe to pan and cook top side (side without vein) until well browned. Reduce heat, turn roe over, and continue to cook on second side until well browned and almost firm. Cover pan slightly to avoid dangerous splattering. Remove roe and blot on paper. Return saute pan to heat. Add butter, let melt, and cook until brown. Add lemon juice, allow to sizzle, and add chopped parsley. Plate roe and drizzle lemon butter over top. Serve smoked bacon on top of roe.;
