Ingredients

  • 16 oz Tender edges of dryad saddle mushrooms
  • 1/2 tablespoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup Dry white wine
  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 2 clove minced Large garlic
  • 20 Fresh mint leaves
  • A pinch of red pepper flakes
  • Dash of fresh lemon to taste
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable broth

Instructions

  • Clean and slice the pheasant back mushroom into thin, even slices.
  • In a skillet or pan, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat until melted.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mushrooms are soft and lightly browned.
  • Season with salt to taste.
  • Move the cooked mushrooms to a separate dish and set aside.
  • In the same pan, add 2 more tablespoons of butter and minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
  • Add the white wine, fresh mint leaves, red pepper flakes, and a dash of fresh lemon juice to the pan.
  • Stir and cook for about 2 minutes until the liquid has reduced by half.
  • Add vegetable broth and let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and add the cooked mushrooms back into the pan, stirring to coat them in the sauce.
  • Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mushrooms are fully coated in the sauce and heated through.
  • Serve hot with your choice of starch, such as potatoes or rice.

Notes

  • Make sure to clean the mushrooms thoroughly before slicing them, as they can often have bits of dirt or debris attached to them.
  • Use fresh herbs for best results, as they add a bright and flavorful touch to the dish.
  • Adjust the seasoning to your liking, adding more or less salt and red pepper flakes depending on your taste preferences.
  • If you don’t have dry white wine, you can substitute it with chicken or vegetable broth.
  • Be careful not to overcook the mushrooms as they can become too soft and lose their texture.
