Today being the 12th, we start our winter league bowling. It is so
much better to bowl Monday and Thursday rather than Wednesday and Thursday,
gives us a break in between.
Tried this out for supper last night. We both enjoyed it. As I did it for supper I fried two eggs each.
Sherried Mushrooms with Fried Eggs on Toast
Food & Wine
2 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
3/4 lb mixed mushrooms, such as button and cremini, sliced 1/4 inch thick
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 small onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup dry sherry, such as Oloroso
Four 1/2-inch-thick slices of rustic white bread
2 Tbs unsalted butter
4 large eggs
2 Tbs coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1. Preheat the oven to 400°. In a large skillet, heat the 2 tablespoons of oil until shimmering. Add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook over moderate heat, stirring a few times, until softened, 4 minutes. Add the onion, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and the mushrooms are browned, 3 minutes longer. Add the sherry and cook until almost evaporated, 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat, cover and set aside.
2. Arrange the bread slices on a large rimmed baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Bake for about 6 minutes, until toasted. Transfer the toasts to plates.
3. In a large, nonstick skillet, melt the butter over moderate heat. Crack the eggs one at a time into a ramekin and then slip into the skillet. Cook the eggs, sunny-side up, until the whites are firm and the yolks runny, about 5 minutes.
4. Spoon the mushroom mixture onto the toasts and top with the fried eggs. Garnish with the parsley and serve.
Servings: 4

MAKE AHEAD
The cooked mushrooms can be refrigerated overnight. Reheat gently.
Have a great day
Hi Jo - good luck with the bowling, glad the hangouts are fun ... while I had devilled mushrooms at a pub on Saturday ... they were positively delicious! Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteThanks Hilary. You and I should try talking on Hangouts. Very simple. Devilled mushrooms sound good. I like stuff devilled especially kidneys.
DeleteAh, mushroom season approaches. My Dad was a great mushroom hunter for morels. Alas, all I did was sit in the car. Such is the life of an unknowing teen-ager.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid, Denise, my mother and I used to go find big field mushrooms, bit like Portabellas, before daylight. You had to be a tad careful because the cows had been in the fields too. Also, they got grubby quickly. When I first came to Canada someone gave me a puff ball which was delicious, but only had morels from stores.
DeleteHope it is a good bowling season!
ReplyDeleteBetty
Thanks Betty. So do I.
DeleteIt was 6AM on the west coast when I got up for work and turned on the TV to see the tower on fire, and then the second plane crashed into the other tower and I literally screamed. I couldn't believe it. It was clear it was on purpose. I cried the whole way to work and all day. I had nightmares for weeks.
ReplyDeleteWhen the first plane crashed though it looked like an accident JoJo. It was all pretty horrifying.
DeleteI think most everyone at my work was glued to the television all day. The moment that second plane hit, we all knew it was terrorists.
ReplyDeleteYes, same here Alex. For a short while I thought what a dreadful accident.
DeleteI have to get a new phone to hang out on. My wi-fi is broken and I burned through a ton of data, but it was worth it.
ReplyDeleteI was at home watching the news when it happened. I called Chad at work and told him some moron flew a plane into the towers. Then the second hit and my stomach hit the floor. I knew, like you, that was no accident or coincidence.
Don't you have a computer Liz? Much easier. I have now fixed mine so I can hear on the desktop.
DeleteIt was terrible once we realized it was terrorists.
That was a horrible day and when I came back from work, I was glued to the TV as well. So very sad
ReplyDeleteI wasn't working by the Birgit, so I was glued to the TV right from the first moments.
DeleteVery sad day :-(
ReplyDeleteTim uses G+ and hangouts all the time for his buddies. They have a blast. Sometimes they use cameras, sometimes not.
It was sad but also horrifying Ivy.
DeleteI like it best with cameras myself.
