Categories side-dish

Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 cups white wine
2 cups clam juice
6 cloves garlic, smashed
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1 bunch of leeks, outer tough leaves removed, cleaned
1 cup olive oil
4 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped

Steps:

Bring white wine, clam juice, garlic, onion and butter to a simmer. Add leeks and braise for 20 minutes, let cool in liquid. Cut lengthwise. Whisk together the olive oil and garlic in a large bowl, and the leeks and let marinate 1 hour. Preheat grill. Grill until golden brown.

Tips:

Choose the right mushrooms: For grilling, choose firm and meaty mushrooms like portobello, shiitake, or oyster mushrooms.
Clean the mushrooms properly: Wipe the mushrooms with a damp cloth or paper towel to remove any dirt or debris. Do not rinse the mushrooms under running water, as this can make them soggy.
Slice the mushrooms evenly: This will help them cook evenly on the grill.
Marinate the mushrooms: Marinating the mushrooms in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will add flavor and prevent them from drying out on the grill.
Preheat the grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat before cooking the mushrooms. This will help to prevent them from sticking to the grates.
Oil the grill grates: Brushing the grill grates with oil will also help to prevent the mushrooms from sticking.
Cook the mushrooms in batches: Do not overcrowd the grill, as this will prevent the mushrooms from cooking evenly. Cook the mushrooms in batches if necessary.
Flip the mushrooms halfway through cooking: This will help them to cook evenly on both sides.
Remove the mushrooms from the grill when they are tender: The mushrooms are done cooking when they are tender and slightly browned. Do not overcook the mushrooms, as this will make them tough.

Conclusion:

Grilled mushrooms and leeks are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed as part of a main meal or as a snack. They are easy to make and can be prepared in just a few minutes. The mushrooms and leeks are grilled until they are tender and slightly browned, and then tossed in a simple vinaigrette.
