MUSHROOM AND GREENS GRATIN
Casseroles need not contain eggs or dairy products. And baked beans, exceptionally creamy after their long simmer in the oven, can be made into perfect vegan fare. Add vegetables of your choice and you'll have a perfect one-dish meal. This savory gratin is a regular item in my winter repertory. Those one-pound bags of sturdy greens, sold in my market as "Southern greens mix," are a winter godsend. All the time-consuming work has been done, and the rest can be accomplished while the blanching water comes to a boil.

BLUE CHEESE MUSHROOM AND ONION POTATO GRATIN
To save time saute the onions and mushrooms up to a day in advance, you can also make this omitting the mushrooms if desired. The cooking time is only estimated depending on the thickness of the sliced potatoes, if you own a mandoline use it for this recipe as the potato slices must be sliced very thinly.

WILD MUSHROOM AND POTATO GRATIN
Wild mushrooms add a luxurious dimension to this comforting, almost classic potato gratin. There is no cream here, just milk mixed with porcini broth (the result of soaking dried porcinis for 30 minutes in boiling water). You can use a mix of wild mushrooms, or just one type. Sauté them with onion or shallots, garlic and savory herbs (thyme and rosemary or sage), season them well and toss with the potatoes. The gratin requires 1 1/2 hours in the oven; first you will doubt that all of the liquid will be absorbed by the potatoes, and about halfway through you will be convinced that the finished dish will be watery and the potatoes hard. But by the end, once all the bubbling has subsided, the soft potatoes will have imbibed all of the flavorful liquid in the dish, and the top and edges of the gratin will be crusty, the way a gratin should be.

Steps:
- Place the dried porcinis in a bowl or a pyrex measuring cup and pour on 1 1/2 cups boiling water. Soak for 30 minutes. Line a strainer with cheesecloth and place over a bowl. Drain mushrooms, then squeeze in cheesecloth to extract juices. Rinse several times and chop medium-fine. Measure out 1 cup of broth.
- Meanwhile heat oven to 375 degrees. Rub inside of a 3-quart gratin dish or baking dish all over with the cut half garlic clove and lightly oil with olive oil. Heat oil in a wide, heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion or shallots and cook gently until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn up heat to high and add mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until they begin to sweat, 2-3 minutes, reduce heat to medium, and add minced garlic, thyme, rosemary or sage and dried porcinis. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Season mushrooms with salt and pepper and continue to cook over medium heat until soft, about 5 more minutes. Add wine and cook, stirring, until it is no longer visible in the pan. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- In a large bowl combine potatoes, mushrooms, half the cheese, and salt and pepper. Arrange in an even layer in gratin dish.
- Combine milk and mushroom broth. Season generously with salt and pour over the potatoes and mushrooms. Press the vegetables down into the liquid. Bake 1 hour. Every 20 minutes remove gratin dish and press potatoes and mushrooms down into the liquid with the back of a large spoon. After 1 hour, sprinkle on remaining cheese and bake for another 30 minutes, until top is golden and the sides crusty. Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Serve hot or warm.

LEEK AND MUSHROOM GRATIN

Yield Makes 6 servings
Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over low heat, then cool.
- Toss melted butter with bread crumbs, cheeses, garlic, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a bowl until combined.
- Trim each leek to an 8-inch length (reserve tops for another use if desired). Halve leeks lengthwise, then cut crosswise into roughly 1-inch pieces. Wash leeks, then drain well.
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a 1-to 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and cook roux, whisking, 1 minute. Add stock in a slow stream, whisking, then bring to a boil, whisking. Add nutmeg and zest and boil, whisking, 1 minute. Remove from heat.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Butter baking dish.
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-low heat. Add leeks and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper, then cover leeks directly with a round of parchment paper and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is absorbed and leeks are tender and just beginning to brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat until foam subsides. Add mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is absorbed and mushrooms are just beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Remove parchment from leeks and stir in mushrooms. Transfer mixture to baking dish, spreading it evenly. Pour sauce over vegetables and top with crumb mixture. Bake until gratin is bubbling and topping is golden, about 15 minutes.
Tips:
- Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your gratin a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
- Sauté the mushrooms and onions before baking. This will help to caramelize the onions and bring out the flavor of the mushrooms.
- Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese are both good options.
- Don't overcook the gratin. The gratin should be cooked until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the top is golden brown. Overcooking will make the gratin dry and tough.
- Serve the gratin immediately. The gratin is best served hot out of the oven. If you let it sit for too long, the cheese will start to harden and the gratin will become less creamy.
Conclusion:
Mushroom and onion gratin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. With its creamy cheese sauce, tender mushrooms, and caramelized onions, this gratin is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful dish, give mushroom and onion gratin a try. You won't be disappointed!
