Brandy, Mushroom, Gruyere Crepes & Sharon Van Etten

Here is a nice filling for the crepe batter you made over the weekend.

Music: Sharon Van Etten - “Because I Was In Love”  If you ever get a chance to see her live, I highly recommend it.  I’ve seen her a few times over the last year or two but never listened to her recorded music until recently for fear that it wouldn’t replicate that raw emotion you see in her performance.  But it really does!  Do yourself a favor, go see her live, buy her album.  She’ll melt your heart.

Ingredients: Serves 4

8 oz White Mushrooms, sliced fine

1/2 a Small Onion, diced (White or Spanish)

1 Clove Garlic, diced

2 Tb Olive Oil

2 Shots of Brandy

Pinch of Thyme

Pinch of Sage

Pepper  & Salt to Taste

Gruyere according to preference

Directions:

Heat Oil on Medium on a Skillet/Pan.  Add garlic and onion and sautee until it begins to brown.

Add mushrooms, thyme, and sage.  Cook for a few minutes until liquid from mushrooms begins to appear.  Add Brandy & Salt and turn to high.  Cook on high until liquid starts to disappear and caramalize.

Turn off heat and add gruyere.  Fill Crepes or Omelettes and enjoy!
