Preparation time:

Cooking time:

Total time:
30 minutes 30 minutes
Serves:
 2

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 1 onion, finely sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 250g mushrooms (eg a mix of oyster, shiitake, portabellini), wiped clean and sliced if large
  • 175ml Waitrose Vintage English Cider
  • 2 tsp cornflour
  • 1 tbsp Geo Watkins Mushroom Ketchup
  • 150ml Alpro Organic Soya Yogurt
  • ½ x 20g pack fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan and sauté the onion for 8-10 minutes until starting to soften.
  2. Add the garlic and mushrooms, season and continue to sauté for 4-5 minutes, until the mushrooms have softened.
  3. Add the cider and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce slightly.
  4. Blend the cornflour with the mushroom ketchup until smooth. Remove the mushrooms from the heat then add the ketchup and yogurt, and stir to combine. Warm over a low heat until slightly thickened and piping hot.

Cook's tips

For a more indulgent version, use soured cream instead of the yogurt. You could also replace the cider with apple juice, if you prefer.

your mushroom risotto: would have been delicious if it was not for the mustard which is so overpowering, one cannot taste anything else. Such a pity!

I spent £12 on ingredients for this recipe for 4 people. I halved the amount of yoghurt as it seemed to look quite pale when I added in the first 150 ml so left the second half out. We ate the meal, but it was very sweet and not rich in mushroom flavour and we ended up throwing the rest away (there was quite a bit left). I love mushrooms and was really looking forward to this. I can only assume it is a twist on a traditional recipe. I would love to try a traditional recipe as I know how nice it can taste, but have never made it before and wanted to try it. Disappointed at having to throw all those lovely (and expensive!) ingedients in the bin.

My husband and I loved this recipe. We used goats milk yoghurt, because that's what was in the fridge, and slightly more mushrooms so that we used up the packs we'd bought rather than leaving a few to go to waste. Served with mashed sweet potato. Making it again this week.

But what could I serve this with? Would that wide-ribbon tagliatelle be ok? And also with sweet potato mash?

can some one suggest an alternative to Geo Watkins Mushroom Ketchup because neither of my local Waitrose's have it in stock and i would very much like to make this recipe.

This was great, I made it with Oyster, Shiitake and Chestnut 'shrooms, and it came out beautifully. Sweet potato mash went really well too. I would probably add meat in the future to give it a bit more texture and substance. (Perfect meal if you have just been to the dentist, though!)

I tried this recipe at the weekend and it was fantastic! I also used flour instead of corn flour and had no problems. One of my guests said it was even better than she had had in restaurants. I used closed cup, porcini and shitake mushrooms and sour cream instead of the yogurt. The vegetarians had theirs served with rice and the meat eaters (including myself) had it served as a steak sauce.

Hi mumpee, We're very sorry that you did not enjoy this recipe. I've had a chat with our food editor and she confirms that the recipe is correct but recommends sticking with cornflour for smoother results. We reassure you that our recipes are tested thoroughly before going onto the site and so we're disappointed that you had a bad experience with this one. Marie, Website Editor, Waitrose.com
