Ingredients

  • 25 g Wild Garlic (0.5 bunch)
  • 20 g Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp pine nuts
  • 6 tbsp Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • a splash lemon juice
  • 500 g button mushrooms
  • 1 Shallot
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 50 ml Madeira wine
  • 475 ml vegetable broth
  • 200 ml Milk (3.5% fat)
  • a pinch porcini mushroom powder
  • 125 g corn grits
  • 80 g crème fraîche (4 tbsp)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Wash and dry the wild garlic for the pesto. Grate the parmesan. Toast the pine nuts in a dry pan until golden brown, remove, let cool briefly, then blend with the wild garlic, parmesan, and 5 tbsp olive oil into a smooth pesto. Season with salt, pepper, and a splash of lemon juice.

  2. 2.

    Clean the mushrooms and slice them. Peel and finely chop the shallot and garlic. Heat the remaining olive oil in a pan and sauté the shallot and garlic until translucent over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, cook for 2 minutes, deglaze with Madeira, then add 75 ml vegetable broth and milk. Season with salt, pepper, and porcini powder, simmer on medium heat for about 10 minutes until thickened.

  3. 3.

    Meanwhile bring the remaining vegetable broth to a boil in a pot. Stir in the corn grits, bring back to a boil, then reduce heat and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they swell. Remove from heat and fold in the pesto. Mix crème fraîche into the mushroom mixture and adjust seasoning.

  4. 4.

    Distribute the creamy mushrooms over four preheated plates. Using two dampened tablespoons, scoop portions of the polenta dough onto the mushrooms. Serve immediately.
