Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (or vegan butter)
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium shallot, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon thyme or rosemary, coarsely chopped
- 1 pound white or brown button mushrooms, coarsely chopped
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped spinach or kale
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions:
- Sauté: Melt butter and olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic, shallots, and thyme or rosemary. Cook until shallots are soft, about 3 minutes.
- Add mushrooms: Add mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until the moisture released from the mushrooms has evaporated, about 7 more minutes.
- Puree: Add cooked mushrooms and ricotta cheese to a food processor and blitz until smooth. Taste and season with salt as needed. Add optional additions like spinach, kale, feta cheese, or red pepper flakes. Finish with a few drops of truffle oil if desired.
- Serve: Serve warm or cold with crackers or toast.
Optional additions:
- For extra flavor: Add spinach, kale, crumbled feta cheese, or red pepper flakes.
- For a richer texture: Use a combination of ricotta cheese and heavy cream.
- For a spicier kick: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
