Egg Noodles With Morel Mushrooms And Garbanzo Beans Recipes

EGG NOODLES WITH MOREL MUSHROOMS AND GARBANZO BEANS

Steps:

• Bring broth and mushrooms to simmer in heavy small saucepan. Remove from heat; let stand until mushrooms soften, about 12 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer mushrooms to small bowl; reserve soaking liquid in pan. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic; stir 30 seconds. Add mushrooms and reserved soaking liquid, leaving any sediment in pan. Add wine and garbanzo beans. Boil until mushrooms are tender and sauce is reduced by half, about 8 minutes.
• Add noodles, 1/2 cup cheese and thyme to sauce. Toss until sauce coats noodles, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with remaining cheese.

EGG NOODLES WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Cook egg noodles until just tender in boiling salted water, about 6 minutes.
• Saute sliced mushrooms and shallot in 2 tablespoons butter over moderate heat until mushrooms are tender, about 3 or 4 minutes.
• Drain noodles and toss in with cooked mushrooms. Add the parsley and season with a little salt, to taste.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH MORELS

Steps:

• Melt half the butter in a small skillet over high heat. Add the morels and shallots and sauté until they are tender, about 8 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
• Melt the remaining butter in a heavy nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the eggs and cook, stirring gently but constantly, until the eggs have coagulated but retain a soft, custardy consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the eggs to two warm plates and spoon half the morel mixture on top of each portion.

PASTA WITH MUSHROOMS, FRIED EGGS AND HERBS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil and cook pasta until it's al dente, 1 to 2 minutes less than package directions. Drain, reserving 1 1/2 cups pasta water.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Fry until the undersides are golden and crispy and the yolk is still runny, 2 to 4 minutes. Using a spatula, transfer eggs to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and the remaining olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Once the butter melts, add the mushrooms and sauté until deeply browned, about 12 to 15 minutes. Add the shallots, garlic, thyme and red-pepper flakes, and cook for 1 minute. Season well with salt.
• Add the pasta to the skillet along with the remaining butter, grated cheese and 1 cup of the pasta water, tossing everything together until the butter melts and the sauce is glossy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the parsley and toss again to combine, adding more of the pasta water as needed to loosen up the sauce.
• Serve in bowls with a fried egg on top of each portion and scatter with the mint, if using. Pass additional grated cheese at the table and drizzle with a bit more of the olive oil if desired.
