Casserole with champignons and cheese crust
A delicious casserole of potatoes with mushrooms in the oven is obtained by adding cheese to the dish.
To prepare this option you will need:
- Champignons – 400 g
- Potatoes – 1 kg
- Onions – 1-2 pcs.
- Vegetable oil – 3 tbsp.
- Salt, pepper - to taste
- Garlic – 2 cloves
- Hard cheese – 100 g
- Milk or cream – 200 ml
- Egg – 2 pcs.
The tubers should be thoroughly peeled and peeled, boiled until half cooked - after boiling, it is enough to hold it for 10-15 minutes.
Prepare the mushroom filling. The onion must be peeled and chopped, and then placed in a frying pan for further frying, focusing on the appearance of a golden crust.
Wash and chop the mushrooms, then boil until half cooked, changing the water twice. Then the mushrooms should also be fried. You can put them on the bow.
At the end of frying, the filling should be lightly salted. Add garlic squeezed through a press there.
Cool the potatoes and cut into thin slices.
Place half of it in a tiled pan and cover with a layer of filling. Cover with remaining potatoes.
Then it's a matter of filling. For it you need to mix eggs and milk, beat them until smooth and pour into the mold with the potatoes.
Grate the cheese and sprinkle the workpiece.
To prevent the crust from burning prematurely, you should cover the pan with foil, which should be removed shortly before the end of cooking. Cook the casserole for half an hour at 180 degrees.
Potato casserole with sour cream
To prepare this dish you will need:
- Potatoes – 6-10 pcs.
- Mushrooms – 400 g
- Onion – 2 pcs.
- Sour cream – 1 glass
- Vegetable oil – 3 tbsp.
- Cheese (you need to choose hard varieties) – 150 g
- Salt and spices - to taste
First you need to boil the potatoes, but it is important not to overcook them. The onion should be cut into thin half rings and sautéed in oil (take a little of it), and washed and chopped mushrooms should be added to it. Fry everything until golden brown.
Potatoes must be cut into thin slices. Grate the cheese.
Grease the mold with vegetable oil. Place half of the potatoes, add salt, sprinkle with pepper and coat with sour cream.
Place mushrooms and onions on this layer and also brush with sour cream, then the remaining potatoes. Sprinkle everything with cheese.
Cooking time for the casserole is half an hour at a temperature of 180 degrees.
Preparation
1. Prepare the necessary ingredients - peel and wash the potatoes, onions, wash the champignons and peel them if necessary. It is not necessary to take the butter out of the refrigerator in advance.
2. Cut the peeled potatoes into small pieces and place in a saucepan. Add water to cover the potatoes and place on the stove. After the water boils, reduce the heat, add salt to the potatoes and cook until soft – 20-25 minutes.
3. While the potatoes are cooking, you can prepare the mushrooms and onions. You just need to chop them - the onions are finer, and the mushrooms are larger, as they will shrink during the frying process.
4. Melt a small piece of butter in a frying pan - literally 10 g. Place mushrooms and onions on a hot surface. Add salt, sprinkle with spices and fry for 5 minutes over low heat.
5. When the potatoes are cooked, drain almost all the water, but not into the sink, but into a cup - so that if necessary, you can return some of it back to the pan. Throw a piece of butter into the pan and beat in a fresh chicken egg.
6. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes until smooth. There is no need to use a blender in such cases, as the consistency will become too viscous.
7. Grease a baking dish (deep) with a piece of butter. Add half of the mashed potatoes and smooth it out.
8. Now add a layer of fried mushrooms and onions, smooth out.
9. Cover the top of the mushrooms with a second layer of potatoes and smooth it out. Place the mold in an oven preheated to 180 degrees. Since all the components are, in principle, ready, you need to wait for the potatoes to “set”. This will literally take 10 minutes.
10. Serve the finished dish in small bowls. Just before serving, you can sprinkle the dish with a pinch of grated hard cheese and fresh chopped herbs.
