POTATO-MUSHROOM PIE



Potato-Mushroom Pie image

This gratin combines two comforting ingredients to their mutual advantage --and ours. Sliced potatoes encircle a casserole dish, with assorted wild mushrooms, such as chanterelle and oyster, taking spots alongside more potatoes. Fresh thyme gives the pie herbal undertones; Gruyere and Parmesan, melting in and around the layers during baking, make it soul-satisfying.

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for dish
1 medium onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 pounds assorted wild mushrooms, such as chanterelle, oyster, or black trumpet, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 cup finely grated Gruyere cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese, about 3 1/2 ounces
2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
1 tablespoon finely chopped thyme leaves
3/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 13-by-9-inch baking dish; set aside. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add half of the mushrooms; cook until they are slightly softened. Add remaining mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms have released their juices and most of the liquid has evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes. Add wine; cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid has evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Combine cheeses in a small bowl; set aside. Cover bottom of prepared dish with potato slices, slightly overlapping them. Sprinkle with half of the thyme and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the cheese and half of the mushroom mixture. Repeat layering process, using all but 2 tablespoons cheese. Arrange remaining potato slices, slightly overlapping, around the edge of the dish. Stir together milk and cream in a bowl, and pour over top. At this point, dish can be refrigerated, covered, up to 1 day; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before baking.
  • Cover loosely with foil, and bake until bubbling, about 1 hour. Remove foil, and sprinkle with reserved cheese. Bake until top is golden, 20 to 30 minutes more. Transfer dish to a wire rack; let cool 10 minutes before serving.

Potato, Spinach, & Mushroom Casserole image

This recipe is from the "Cooking with Friends" recipe book. "Friends" is my favorite TV show, and this is definitely one of my favorite recipes. I tend to make this when entertaining & am always proud of how it turns out. I always get wonderful reviews & many requests for this recipe. It is listed in the recipe book under Vegetarian Delights. I have found that it also makes an excellent side dish to accompany beef, chicken or fish. This dish has an incredible flavor & goes nicely with a glass of wine.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will add depth of flavor to your pie. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Don't overcook the mushrooms. They should be tender but still have a bit of bite to them.
  • Use fresh spinach. Frozen spinach can be used in a pinch, but fresh spinach will give your pie a brighter flavor.
  • Don't overcook the spinach. It should be wilted but still green.
  • Use a good quality puff pastry. This will make a big difference in the overall texture of your pie.
  • Don't overfill the pie. The filling should be about 1 inch thick.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. This will take about 30 minutes.
