creme fraiche reciepes

[Sonak]

Anybody know any receipes that consist of mushroom which you can have with meat like chicken, pork etc?

I know the French use it a lot but want to find a quick reciepe but cant find anything really on the internet!

Any advice, thanks

You can make chicken curry and add creme fraiche instead of yoghurt. I love the sourness of it.

How about this (you can substitute chicken breasts for the pork if you wish)

2 tsps olive or sunflower oil
4 medium pork steaks
1 onion finely chopped
9oz mixed mushrooms, sliced
4 tbsps dry white wine OR veg stock
1 tbsp whole-grain mustard
4 fl oz half-fat creme fraiche
2 tbsp chopped fresh tarragon OR 1 tsp dried tarragon
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Heat the oil in a fry pan, fry the pork for about 5 mins on each side or until browned and cooked through. Remove and keep warm. Add the onion and mushrooms to the pan and fry for 3 mins or until softened. Pour over the wine or stock, allow to bubble and reduce by half. Stir in the mustard, creme fraiche and tarragon. Season to taste.
Return the pork to the pan along with any juices. Bring to te boil, simmer 1 minute and serve.

I love it and it's quick and easy.

Or for something different:

12oz Egg and Spinach Tagliettele
6oz Garlic and Herb Boursin
6 x 15ml spoons Creme Fraiche
2 x 15ml spoons of Pesto
8 ozs peeled prawns
Black Pepper
2 x 15ml spoons toasted Pine Nuts
2 x 15 ml spoons fresh parmesan

Directions:
Cook and drain the pasta and keep warm. Mix all the sauce ingredients together over a low heat and stir until all melted. Add the prawns and stir well, until heated through. Pour over the Pasta and serve with the pine nuts and parmesan sprinkled over.
