MUSHROOM AND CREAM PIE (VG)

PREPARATION

Serves: 6

Prep. time: 40 minutes

Cook time: 60 minutes

INGREDIENTS

  • 300 grams mushrooms (forest mix),
  • 200 grams button mushrooms,
  • 10 grams of dehydrated death trumpets,
  • 1 carrot,
  • 1 shallot,
  • 2 puff pastry sheets,
  • 100 grams grated Gruyère cheese,
  • 2 egg yolks,
  • 150 ml whole liquid crème fraîche,
  • 10 gr butter,
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil,
  • Guérande Salt,
  • 5 berry mill pepper ,
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley 

METHOD

Soak the trumpets of death in hot water.

Remove the feet and clean all the mushrooms and cut them into thick slices. Cook them in a frying pan with the olive oil to make them release all their water.

Peel the carrot, grate it and blanch it in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain it in a colander. Rinse the death trumpets, dry them and cut them with a knife. Peel and chop the shallot that you add to the pan, as well as the carrot and the death trumpets. Continue cooking for a few more minutes. Turn off the heat, add the parsley. Pour into a pot and let cool.

Once this preparation has cooled, add the Gruyère cheese and the crème fraîche.

In a foam circle 18 cm in diameter and 6 cm high, place the first dough, bringing up the edges and cut out the excess. Pour the preparation, press down, fold the edge of the dough slightly and brush it with a little beaten egg yolk. Place a 18 cm disc on top and glue it with a bit of egg yolk. Brush again with the egg yolk, add puff pastry decorations that you will have cut out with a cookie cutter from the model of your choice. Brush again with egg yolk.

Bake for 50 minutes in a hot oven at 180°C. After removing from the oven, wait about 30 minutes before tasting.
