Green Beans with
Mushroom-Madiera Sauce

From Jenn's Collection

Jenn skipped the leeks and just replaced them with the already prepared French's Fried Onions - frying your own is really not worth the effort.  Also, the oyster mushrooms are pretty expensive - I think you could just go with shitake and be fine.

Quantity Ingredients Preparation Notes
3 Tbsp Butter
  •   Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat.
  •   Add all mushrooms and thyme; sauté 5 minutes.
  •   Add 2 tablespoons shallots; sauté until mushrooms are tender, about 3 minutes.
  •   Add Madeira and simmer until almost all liquid evaporates, about 2 minutes.
  •   Add cream and simmer until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
  •   Set sauce aside.
  •   Cook beans in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, 5 minutes.
  •   Drain.
  •   Transfer to bowl of ice water; cool. Drain. (Sauce and beans can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover separately; chill.) 
  •   Pour enough oil into large deep saucepan to reach depth of 4 inches.
  •   Heat oil to 350°F. Place 1/4 of leeks in small metal strainer.
  •   Lower strainer into oil; fry until golden, 40 seconds.
  •   Lift strainer from oil. Drain leeks on paper towels.
  •   Repeat with remaining leeks in 3 more batches.
  •   Season leeks with salt.
  •   Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat.
  •   Add beans and remaining 1 tablespoon shallots; toss to heat through.
  •   Season with salt and pepper. Place beans on platter.
  •   Bring sauce to simmer.
  •   Spoon sauce over beans. Sprinkle with fried leeks.
