Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 2

Ingredients

1/2 pound mushrooms
1/2 pound Stilton cheese
2 large garlic cloves
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/3 cup heavy cream
Accompaniment: chunks of crusty whole-grain bread

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F.

    Step 2

    Trim mushrooms and halve if small or quarter if large. Crumble enough Stilton, not including rind, to measure about 1 cup. Force garlic through a garlic press.

    Step 3

    In a 9-inch heavy skillet heat butter over moderately high heat until foam subsides and sauté mushrooms, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and cream and gently boil until slightly thickened, about 4 minutes. Season mixture with salt and pepper and divide between 2 shallow 1-cup gratin dishes. Mushroom mixture may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.

    Step 4

    Top mushroom mixture with Stilton and on a baking sheet bake in middle of oven until cheese is melted and bubbling, 5 to 10 minutes.

    Step 5

    Serve mushrooms with bread for sopping up sauce.
