PREPARATIONS

Recommended Equipment
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • large pan
  • baking dish
  • Wash the cilantro, pluck the leaves from the stalks and chop finely.
  • Peel the garlic cloves.

    PASSIVE: 25 min

    COOKING

    1. For the enchilada sauce, sauté the onions and jalapeno in a large pan over a medium heat until the onions are soft and slightly translucent. Next, add the crushed garlic, stir briefly and warm through.

    2. Now increase the heat and add the minced beef to the pan and fry until the meat has turned crispy dark brown.

    3. Now pour the beef stock and chopped tomatoes into the pan and stir everything together. Now add the spices: chili flakes, cumin, salt and pepper. Allow everything to reduce over medium heat for 10-15 minutes until the sauce has a bit thickened. As soon as the sauce has thickened, stir in 1 tablespoon of chopped coriander. Stir and set a side.

    4. In the meantime, you can prepare the guacamole and the pico de gallo.

    5. Preheat the oven to 250°C (480°F) and prepare a baking dish (my used measurements were 20x26cm (8×10 inch)) by pouring 3-4 tablespoons of the enchilada sauce onto the bottom of the baking dish and spread it out.

    6. Now place 2-3 tbsp of the enchilada sauce in the middle of each tortilla, sprinkle 2 tbsp of grated cheese over the top and then roll up the tortilla. Either do it the traditional way from the bottom to the top or fold both sides in at first and then roll from the bottom to the top.

    7. Now place the tortilla rolls in the baking dish on top of the sauce, spread the rest of the sauce on the tortillas and finish with the remaining cheese.

    8. Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for approx. 10-15 minutes or until the cheese has melted and is crispy golden brown in places.

    9. Take the baking dish out of the oven, divide the enchiladas between four plates and top with crème fraîche, pico de gallo, guacamole and fresh coriander.

            COOKING

            1. Heat 1 tsp butter and 2 tbsp olive oil in a pan. Add the mushrooms and fry for approx. 10 minutes until golden brown. Add the finely chopped herbs, stir and fry briefly. Then deglaze with 50ml white wine and reduce until there is no more liquid in the pan. Season the mushrooms with salt and pepper. Put the pan to aside.

            2. Heat 1 tsp butter and 2 tbsp olive oil in the pan. Sauté the onions until translucent and then add the risotto rice. Stir everything well and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Now deglaze with 100ml (1/2 cup) white wine and reduce over a medium heat until there is no more liquid in the pan.

            3. Now pour 100ml (1/2 cup) of the stock into the rice. Leave to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has evaporated. Now pour in the next 100ml, stir and leave it to simmer until the rice soaked up the liquid. Proceed in the same way with the remaining 200 ml (1 cup) of stock, adding 100 ml (1/2 cup) at a time and allowing to simmer.

            4. Now add 150ml (1+ 1/4 cup) of the water to the rice and also let it cook until the rice absorbed the water. Next, add 100ml (1/2 cup) of white wine. Finally, add the last 150ml (1+ 1/4 cup) of water and cook now while stirring. The whole process takes about 40 minutes.

            5. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the Parmesan. Stir well so that the Parmesan melts. Now add half of the fried mushrooms and stir well.

            6. Divide the risotto between plates and top with the other half of the mushrooms. Top with freshly ground pepper and olive oil to taste.

Perfect for those who adore the rich, earthy flavors of truffles and the creamy texture of mascarpone, this easy Truffle Pasta is a delightful twist on traditional Italian cuisine. Its decadent mushroom blend is sure to impress, offering a quick yet elegant meal option for any occasion.

            You can use broth or stock for this dish. Just note that if you use stock, you will need to season the whole dish more strongly. As always, homemade broth or stock will make the dish taste a thousand times better than store-bought.

            Chopped truffle pieces in oil and truffle oil are a much cheaper and very tasty alternative to fresh truffles. You can order the products online or in a supermarket.

            How to serve:
            To elevate your dining experience, serve it hot, garnished with freshly grated Parmesan and a sprinkle of herbs. Pair it with a light, crisp white wine to complement the richness of the truffles and mascarpone. It’s a Luxury Pasta Dish that’s perfect for intimate dinners or as a sophisticated centerpiece for your gatherings.

            How to store:
            If you have leftovers, let the pasta cool down and then store it in an airtight container. It can be refrigerated for up to 2 days. When ready to enjoy again, gently reheat it on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of stock or a dollop of mascarpone to retain its creamy texture. This Truffle Pasta delight remains a tantalizing treat, even as leftovers!

              COOKING

              1. Heat the butter with the truffle oil in a large pan. Sauté the finely chopped shallots over a medium heat for approx. 3 minutes until translucent.

              2. Now add the chopped mushrooms. Allow to brown for a few minutes so that the mushrooms turn golden brown. Add the peeled garlic cloves as whole and one to two stalks of fresh thyme and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Then deglaze with white wine and let it boil for about five minutes on a medium heat, then stir.

              3. Now add the hot chicken stock and cook over a medium heat until only 1/3 is left. This will take about 15 minutes.

              4. In the meantime, cook the pasta in a pan in boiling salted water until al dente.

              5. Now add the mascarpone to the sauce, stir and heat gently. Remove the garlic clove and thyme from the pan. Now add the chopped truffle. Stir well and remove the pan from the heat. Add 1 tbsp of butter to the sauce. Truffle butter is best for this, but normal butter will also work. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

              6. Add the pasta to the sauce in the pan. Stir well. Now add the grated Parmesan and approx. 150 ml of the pasta cooking water to the pan and stir everything until creamy using tongs. This may take a few minutes. Now serve on deep plates. Top with truffle oil and a few mushrooms.
