Artichokes á la Barigoule With Mushrooms
Ingredients:
For the Mushroom Duxelles Filling
4 tablespoons (60g) unsalted butter
1 small yellow onion or 2 medium shallots (about 4 ounces; 115g), minced
1 1/4 pounds (565g) cremini mushrooms, stemmed and finely minced (or processed in a food processor)
2 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the Artichokes:
2 lemons, halved
4 large or 12 small artichokes (2 pounds; 1kg)
6 paper-thin slices pancetta plus 2 ounces diced pancetta (55g)
1 tablespoon (15ml) extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium (6-ounce; 170g) yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 large (5-ounce; 140g) carrot, peeled and cut crosswise into thin rounds
3 medium cloves garlic
1 cup (235ml) dry white wine
3/4 cup (175ml) homemade chicken stockor low-sodium broth (or vegetable stock, if desired)
3 sprigs flat-leaf parsley, 2 sprigs thyme, 1 bay leaf, tied together into a bundle with kitchen twine
1 tablespoon (15g) unsalted butter
Freshly ground black pepper
Large pinch minced flat-leaf parsley, for garnish
Directions:
For the Artichokes: Fill a large bowl with water; halve and squeeze 2 lemons into it.
Drain artichokes. Using a spoon, stuff each artichoke with as much mushroom filling as will fit. Cut pancetta into strips just large enough to cover the top (mushroom-stuffed) side of each artichoke and lay them on top so that the mushroom filling is well covered; you may have some pancetta unused. Tie with kitchen twine to secure the pancetta. (Reserve any unused mushrooms duxelles for another use, such as a layer on a sandwich.)
In a 3-quart sauté pan or saucier, combine diced pancetta and olive oil and heat over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until pancetta has rendered some of its fat and is beginning to brown lightly, about 4 minutes.
Add onion, carrot, and garlic, and cook, stirring frequently, until just starting to soften, about 4 minutes. Nestle stuffed artichokes and their stems on top, then add white wine and bring to a simmer; lower heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook for 4 minutes.
Adding the white wine and let it cook to cook off the alcohol.
Add stock, season lightly with salt, and return to a simmer. Add herbs. Cover and cook at a gentle simmer until artichokes and other vegetables are tender enough to easily slide a fork through them, about 25 minutes (cooking time will vary depending on the age and size of artichokes; if liquid level ever gets too low, add a little more water).
Discard herb bundle. Using a slotted spoon, transfer artichokes, onions, carrots, and garlic, to a serving plate and keep warm. Return cooking liquid to the heat and simmer until slightly syrupy and reduced to about 3/4 cup (175ml). Keep warm.
Remove twine from artichokes, being careful to leave pancetta and mushroom stuffing in place. In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, sear artichokes over medium-high heat, pancetta side down, until pancetta is browned and crispy. Return to serving platter.
Whisk butter and minced parsley into reduced cooking liquid, season with salt and pepper, then pour sauce over warmed platter of vegetables. Serve warm or at room temperature.
