Mushroom Lentil Duxelle Dip

Prep Time: 10 Minutes

Total time: 30 Minutes

Servings: 4

Served warm or cold, this spin on a classic is delicious year-round. The lentils play very well with the umami of the sautéed mushrooms, acidity from the wine and richness of the sour cream and yogurt.

Ingredients

    1 Tbsp (15 mL) canola oil

    1 cup (250 mL) finely chopped onion

    2 garlic cloves, chopped

    1/2 lb (225 g) finely chopped mushrooms

    to taste, salt and pepper

    1/4 cup (60 mL) white wine

    1 cup (250 mL) cooked green lentils

    1/3 cup (75 mL) plain Greek yogurt

    1/3 cup (75 mL) sour cream

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a medium sauté pan and add onion. Cook until lightly golden, add garlic and cook for another 3 minutes.
  2. Stir in mushrooms and cook until golden brown, stirring occasionally, approximately 10 minutes. Season well with salt and pepper.
  3. Deglaze the pan with white wine and stir in lentils and thyme. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the excess wine reduces.
