Recipe Reviews

The mushroom is front and centre in this ragu that’s flavoured with tomatoes, onions and garlic. The flavour was quite nice but it did need a little help.

The author gives you the option of using canned tomatoes; I chose to use fresh and that may have contributed to this recipe’s downfall. The tomatoes started to disintegrate after 20 minutes of simmering, so I didn’t cook them for the additional 10 minutes….perhaps canned would have fared better. Also, my tomatoes weren’t very acidic so I added a squeeze of lemon. Using stock instead of water or a splash of white wine would have improved the flavour of this dish even more.

It was a little watery for a bruschetta topping, but it was wonderful served over cheesy, herbed, grilled polenta.
