Spanish Mushrooms In Garlic Sauce (Tapas)

Spanish Mushrooms In Garlic Sauce (Tapas)


1. Trim off any tough ends of the mushroom stems. Wipe the mushrooms clean with dampened paper towels. If the mushrooms are large, halve or quarter them. Set aside.

2. In a medium-sized heavy skillet or fire proof casserole heat 2 Tablespoons of the oil over medium high heat. Add the garlic and sauté, stirring, until barely golden; do not let it brown. Immediately remove the pan from the heat and stir in the flour until smooth. Return to the heat and cook, stirring, 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually stir in the broth. Add the chili pepper, 1 Tablespoon of the parsley, the lemon juice, and salt and cook, stirring, until the sauce is thick and smooth. Remove from the heat and set aside.

3. In a medium sized, heavy skillet heat the remaining 1 Tablespoon oil over high heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté, stirring frequently, until they are lightly browned. Add the mushrooms to the sauce and simmer 5 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

4. Transfer to a heated serving bowl. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 Tablespoon parsley and serve at once as a tapa. Makes 4 servings.
