Ham And Mushroom Toast Recipes

CREAMED MUSHROOMS AND HAM ON TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Arrange bread slices on a baking sheet and spread with 2 tablespoons butter. Toast in middle of oven until golden, about 10 minutes.
• Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté mushrooms in 2 batches until liquid from mushrooms is evaporated and mushrooms are browned, 6 to 8 minutes, adding 1 1/2 tablespoons butter for second batch. Transfer as cooked to a plate with a slotted spoon.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in skillet over moderate heat, then whisk in flour and cook roux, whisking constantly, 2 minutes. Add milk in a slow stream and bring to a boil, whisking constantly. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking occasionally, 5 minutes. Whisk in sour cream, salt, pepper, and Maggi seasoning, then stir in mushrooms. Cook over low heat, stirring, until heated through, about 2 minutes. (Do not let boil.)
• Arrange a slice of ham on each toast and top with mushrooms and sauce.

SAUTEED MUSHROOMS WITH SMOKED HAM

Steps:

• Place dried mushrooms in medium bowl; add enough boiling water to cover. Let stand until mushrooms soften, about 45 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer mushrooms to work surface; reserve mushroom soaking liquid. Chop mushrooms.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add button mushrooms. Sauté until mushrooms are brown and juices evaporate, about 12 minutes. Add porcini mushrooms; stir 1 minute. Transfer mushroom mixture to medium bowl.
• Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to same skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and next 3 ingredients. Sauté until shallots are tender, about 2 minutes. Add mushroom mixture and 1/2 cup mushroom soaking liquid, leaving behind any sediment. Cover and simmer until mushrooms are tender, stirring occasionally and adding more soaking liquid if mixture is dry, about 20 minutes. Add lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Rewarm over medium heat before serving.)
• Transfer mushroom mixture to serving bowl. Garnish with parsley sprigs.
• Dried porcini mushrooms are available at Italian markets, specialty foods stores, and many supermarkets.

LINGUINE WITH MUSHROOMS & HAM

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add linguine pasta, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente; drain.
• Melt butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, garlic, and mushrooms in butter until tender. Reduce heat, and slowly stir in cream. Continue cooking until sauce has thickened, add ham and basil, and simmer for 10 more minutes.
• In a large bowl, toss linguine with cream sauce, and season with freshly ground black pepper.

HAM, MUSHROOM AND CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Beat eggs, add mushrooms and ham.
• Heat frying pan, and coat with cooking spray or oil.
• Add egg mixture to hot pan and cook until almost set. Flip over and when egg is set, top with cheese. Cook until cheese is melted.
• Serve with hashbrowns, toast, or rice.
• Sometimes I even add chopped green onion, or any color pepper we have on hand.

MUSHROOM HAM FETTUCCINE

Steps:

• In a skillet, saute the ham, mushrooms and garlic in 3 tablespoons butter. Meanwhile, cook fettuccine according to package directions; drain. Melt the remaining butter in a large saucepan. Stir in the fettuccine, Parmesan cheese, sour cream and pepper. Add the ham mixture; toss to coat.

CREAMY CAMPANELLE WITH HAM AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute less than the package recommends, 6 to 9 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in mushrooms, oregano, basil, and parsley. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated. Stir in the ham and cook until heated through, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Pour in heavy cream and bring to a boil. Slowly stir in spaghetti sauce and cayenne. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has reduced a bit. Add cooked pasta to pan (if your saute pan is too small, transfer pasta and mushroom ham blend into the pan you cooked the pasta in). Cook so that sauce thickens a bit more, pasta finishes cooking, and the entire dish has melded together, about 5 minutes more.

CREAMY MUSHROOM HAM & POTATOES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the soup, milk and parsley. In a greased 3-qt. slow cooker, layer half of the potatoes, onion, ham, cheese and soup mixture. Repeat layers. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until potatoes are tender.

CREAMY HAM & MUSHROOM PASTA BAKE

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to pack instructions, then drain. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6, then melt a little butter in a large saucepan. Fry the mushrooms for a couple of mins, then scoop out and set aside. Use some kitchen paper to wipe out the pan.
• Melt the remaining butter in the pan, then add most of the onions and soften for 1 min. Stir in the flour for another min, then gradually stir in the milk until you have a lump-free sauce. Increase the heat and bubble the sauce, stirring for a few mins to thicken. Turn off the heat, stir in the ham and most of the cheese, then season to taste.
• Tip the pasta and mushrooms into a large ovenproof dish, then pour over the sauce and mix well in the dish. Scatter over the remaining cheese and spring onions, then bake for 10 mins until golden.
