For the mushrooms
400g/14oz mixed (wild) mushrooms (pied de mouton, girolle, chanterelle and trompette de la mort) or white button mushrooms
30g/1½oz unsalted butter
½ banana shallot or ¼ onion, peeled, chopped
1 garlic clove, peeled, puréed
100ml/3½fl oz dry white wine
4 pinches sea salt
4 pinches freshly ground black pepper( optional)
10g/½oz fresh flatleaf parsley leaves, roughly chopped
1 sprig fresh tarragon, leaves only, finely chopped
2 sprigs fresh chervil, finely chopped
1 tbsp lemon juice
200g/7oz tomatoes, quartered, seeds scooped out, finely chopped(optional)
Method
For the mushrooms, lightly brush the mushrooms to get rid of any remaining dirt or mud. Briefly wash the mushrooms in a large bowl of fresh water (for no more than 10-15 seconds) then lift them out and place onto a clean tea towel. Gently pat dry, then cut off the base of the stalks and discard.
Heat the butter in a pan over a medium heat until foaming, then add the shallots and garlic and fry for 30 seconds. Increase the heat to high, then add the pied de mouton mushrooms and cook for one minute. Add the white wine and cook for one minute, or until the liquid has reduced slightly, then add the girolles. Cook for a further minute before adding the trompette de la mort, herbs, lemon juice and tomatoes. Stir well. Add a splash of water if the mixture is becoming too dry, then season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
