Mushroom Caramelized Onion And Cheese Calzones Recipes

PASTA WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large Dutch oven or wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, undisturbed, until they are lightly browned and they start to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir well, then add the onions, paprika, remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally (more frequently toward the end), until the onions are golden and very tender, about 30 minutes, reducing the heat to medium during the last 10 minutes so the onions don't burn.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups cooking water, then drain. Add the pasta, 3/4 cup cooking water, the sour cream and vinegar to the mushroom-onion mixture. Toss until the pasta is well coated and slightly saucy, gradually adding the remaining cooking water as needed.
• Add about half each of the parsley, dill and chives to the pasta and toss; season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with the remaining parsley, dill and chives.

MUSHROOM, CARAMELIZED ONION AND CHEESE CALZONES

Steps:

• Separate biscuits and place them on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 400F but do NOT cook biscuits yet.
• In a frying pan, heat olive oil over medium heat and add onion. Saute for 10 minutes or until soft and golden. Add garlic and mushrooms and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, until mushrooms are soft. Add basil, stir and remove from heat.
• In a large bowl, combine ricotta, mozzarella and/or cheddar, parmesan cheese, pepper, salt and the egg white. (Save egg yolk in a small bowl or cup and set aside.) Stir in mushroom mixture.
• Stretch out a biscuit with your hands until it.
• 's about 4 inches wide. Place the biscuit in the palm of your hand and add about 2 tablespoons of the filling in the middle, avoiding the edges. Fold biscuit in half and pinch edges shut. Place on side on baking sheet and seal the edges with a fork. Repeat with the rest of the biscuits.
• Mix egg yolk with water and stir well. Brush each calzone with the egg yolk mixture. Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve with pizza sauce for dipping if you want to!

MUSHROOM & GOAT'S CHEESE CALZONE

Steps:

• Make up the pizza dough following pack instructions. Meanwhile, make the filling. Heat 1 tsp oil in a large frying pan and fry the mushrooms until golden, about 8 mins. Add garlic, chilli and rosemary and cook for 1 min more. Stir in crème fraîche and 1 tbsp water and remove from heat.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Roll out the dough to a 30cm-diameter circle. Spread the mushroom mix across half of the circle, leaving a 2cm border from the edge, and scatter on the goat's cheese. Fold over and press to seal.
• Brush with remaining oil, transfer to a baking sheet and cook for 15-20 mins until risen and golden. Cut in halves and serve with rocket, if you like.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND MUSHROOM STUFFING

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Spread bread cubes in single layer on a large baking sheet.
• Bake, stirring occasionally about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
• Transfer to a large bowl.
• In a large, heavy frying pan, melt the butter over medium high heat.
• When hot, add onions and cook, stirring occasionally until golden brown.
• About 20 minute.
• Reduce heat to medium and add the mushrooms and celery.
• Cook and stir until tender, about 8 minutes.
• Add this mixture to the bread cubes along with the parsley and tarragon.
• Add the stock to the pan you used to cook the onions, and bring to a boil scraping up any browned pieces.
• Add hot stock to the bread mixture and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Mix in the eggs.
• Either stuff the turkey and bake as usual or butter a 13X9 pan and spoon stuffing into pan.
• Cover with foil and bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes.
• Uncover and bake until top is golden brown, about 30 minutes longer.
• I think this is better baked in a pan by itself than stuffed into the turkey-- but to each his own!
