Wild Mushroom stroganoff recipe by a 2-michelin star Chef


INGREDIENTS FOR 4 PERSONS

  • 800g mixed wild mushrooms in season
  • 2 red onions

  • 8 silverskin pickled onions

  • 75 ml brandy/cognac/whisly (optional)
  • smoked paprika

Pick and roughly chop the parsley leaves, finely chopping the stalks. 

2. Place a large non-stock frying pan over a high heat, throw in the mushrooms and red onions, shake into one layer, then dry-fry for 5 minutes (this will bring out the nutty flavour), stirring regularly. 

3. Drizzle in 1 tbsp of oil, then add the garlic, pickled onions, cornichons, parsley stalks and capers.

4. a After 3 minutes, if using alcohol, tilt the pan to carefully flame, or light with a long match (watch out your eyebrows!), and once the flames subside, add 1/4 of a teaspoon of paprika, the creme fraiche and parsley, then toss together. Loosen with a splash of boiling water to a saucy consistency, and season to taste with sea salt and black pepper.
