Finnish baked mushrooms

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 pounds Mushrooms; sliced thin
1 tablespoon Lemon juice
2 tablespoons Onion; finely minced
¼ cup Butter
Salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons Flour
2 cups Heavy cream
4 Egg yolks; lightly beaten
¼ cup Bread crumbs; fine, dry
1 tablespoon Butter

Directions

Mix the breadcrumbs and 1 tb. butter and toast the breadcrumbs in the microwave oven until golden brown, stirring often to prevent burning.

To the sliced mushrooms add the lemon juice, onion, butter, salt, and pepper. Cook, covered, 5 minutes in the microwave oven.

Heat the cream in the microwave oven in a separate covered dish to just short of the boiling point. Stir the flour into the mushrooms, stirring rapidly to prevent lumping. Stir in a bit of the cream. Stir in each egg yolk separately. Stir in the remaining cream. Cook, covered, in the microwave oven until the sauce is just short of boiling. Sprinkle with the toasted bread crumbs and let sit 5 minutes before serving.

Note: The thicker the cream the better the dish tastes. Half and half is better than milk and whipping cream is best of all, but let your purse and your waistline be your guide.
