Low Carb Sauces Recipes

Ingredients:

2 1/2 oz dried porcini mushrooms
1 cup boiling water
3 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
10 oz white mushrooms, cut 1/4-thk slices
1 tsp salt, divided
1/2 tsp freshly-ground black pepper, divided
8 oz atkins pasta cuts penne
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 tsp ground paprika
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions:

Cover porcini with boiling water. Let sit 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a
large skillet over moderate heat, melt butter in olive oil. Add white
mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook until almost
dry and mushrooms are tender, about 30 minutes.

Cook and drain pasta according to package directions. While pasta is
cooking, finish sauce. Remove porcini mushrooms from soaking liquid;
rinse, chop and add to skillet.

Place a coffee filter in a small strainer and pour mushroom soaking liquid
through it. Add strained liquid to skillet. Cook mushroom mixture over
high heat until mostly evaporated but still saucy, about 5 minutes.

Stir in sour cream, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper,
paprika and parsley. Cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Toss
with pasta and serve immediately.

Comments: Purchase porcini mushrooms dry and reconstitute them in boiling

sauce.
