Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mushroom Demi-Glace

    In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped Lion's Mane mushrooms and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Onions and Wine

    Add halved cipollini onions to the pan and cook for another 5 minutes. Pour in the red wine and let it simmer until reduced by half.

  3. 3

    Add Stock and Season

    Add the vegetable stock, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and fresh thyme. Let it simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes until it thickens to a demi-glace consistency.

  4. 4

    Blanch the Gai Lan

    While the demi-glace is simmering, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch gai lan for 2-3 minutes until bright green and tender. Drain and set aside.

  5. 5

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving plate, arrange the blanched gai lan, drizzle with mushroom demi-glace, and garnish with additional thyme if desired.
