MUSHROOM MARINARA SAUCE--EASY



Mushroom Marinara Sauce--Easy image

This is a quicker version of my basic tomato sauce. I cut several corners in this recipe, without sacrificing too much. Instead of pureeing the tomatoes for a smooth sauce, I leave it chunky. I do not use a knife or cutting board for the preparation (although you could, of course). Rather, I use an egg slicer to slice mushrooms and a garlic press to mince garlic. The sauce is started when the pot of water for the pasta is put on the stove. When the pasta is cooked, the sauce is ready.

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
10 medium white button mushrooms, wiped clean
salt
pepper
3 garlic cloves
red pepper flakes
1 (28 ounce) can whole canned tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon sugar
1 dried bay leaf
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Start by heating the oil over medium-low heat in a large pan.
  • Slice mushrooms with egg slicer.
  • When all the mushrooms are sliced, raise the heat on the pan to medium and add the mushrooms.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, for a few minutes until the mushrooms are tender and their juices released.
  • Season the mushrooms with salt and pepper and reduce the heat to medium-low.
  • Using the garlic press, place a clove of unpeeled garlic into the press and add right to the pan (using a fork to get the garlic off the press as necessary). Discard the peel, and continue with the remaining garlic.
  • Stir in the pressed garlic and add a small pinch of red pepper flakes.
  • Open the can of tomatoes and pour the liquid right into the pan.
  • With a kitchen scissor, chop the tomatoes coarsely, right in the can, then, add them to the sauce.
  • Add more seasoning, the bay leaf and dried basil, thyme and sugar, then simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes (while the pasta cooks).
  • When it is almost time to serve, add a little of the pasta cooking liquid to the sauce.
  • Using the scissors, snip the parsley leaves into the sauce.
  • I taste for seasoning, discard bay leaf and serve over cooked pasta.

Rigatoni With Marinara Sauce, Sausage, Mushrooms And Peppers image

Provided by Barbara Kafka

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 35m

Yield 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups parsley leaves
8 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
1/2 cup olive oil
2 28-ounce cans crushed tomatoes
1 1/2 teaspoons oregano
1 teaspoon thyme
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon hot red-pepper flakes
5 pounds sweet Italian sausage in casing, cut into 1-inch lengths
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 bay leaves
4 pounds rigatoni
3/4 pound mushrooms, cut into 1/4-inch slices through the stem (4 cups)
2 1/2 pounds bell peppers (about 6 peppers in assorted colors), cut into 2-inch chunks

Steps:

  • Make the marinara sauce ahead of time. Place the parsley and garlic in the work bowl of a food processor and process until finely chopped.
  • Heat the oil in a large saucepan over low heat. Add the parsley and garlic and cook until the garlic is soft, about seven minutes. Add the tomatoes and spices. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for five minutes. Remove from the heat and reserve.
  • Place the sausage in a large, deep saute pan - in batches if necessary - and cook until well browned. As the sausages are done, place on paper toweling to drain. Reserve the sausages, and the saute pan with its fat.
  • To assemble, bring one very large pot or two large pots of water to a boil for the pasta. Add the salt and bay leaves.
  • Return the saute pan to the stove and heat the fat over high heat. Add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are browned. Add the peppers and cook for five minutes, stirring well and scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Cook the pasta with the boiling water until just done, but not mushy.
  • Stir the mushrooms, peppers and reserved sausage into the marinara sauce. Heat through.
  • Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your marinara sauce a more complex flavor. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Sauté the mushrooms before adding them to the sauce. This will help to develop their flavor and make them more tender.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. This will also help to enhance the flavor of the sauce.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when sautéing the mushrooms. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Season the sauce to taste. This may include adding salt, pepper, garlic powder, or onion powder.
  • Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta. It is also great on chicken, fish, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Mushroom lovers marinara is a delicious and versatile sauce that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give mushroom lovers marinara a try. You won't be disappointed!
