Sauteed Leeks and Mushrooms 0
We ad libbed this recipe last night and it was very well-received, so I thought I’d share it.
Ingredients:
- 2 Leeks
- 6 or 7 button mushrooms
- 1/4 large onion or half a small onion
- 2 or 3 cloves garlic
- pepper and basil (and other spices as desired) to taste
- Approx. 3 tbs. butter
Procedure:
-
1. Wash leeks and mushrooms thoroughly. Note that sand can collect in the leaves of the leeks, so be especially attentive to them.
-
2. Trim leaves and roots from leeks, then slice leeks in 1/2-3/4 inch segments.
-
3. Quarter mushrooms.
-
4. Chop onions.
-
5. Melt butter in saucepan at medium heat, then saute onions and garlic until onions are wilted.
-
6. Add spices, leeks, and mushroom; saute until done, stirring occasionally (15-20 mins.)
Serves two.
H/T Susan for coming up with the idea.
