Ingredients

• 450 grams button mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 medium shallots
• 2 garlic cloves
• 150 grams cooked ham
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 2 tablespoons dry white wine
• 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Clean the button mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Finely chop the mushrooms into small, uniform pieces.

Step 2

Peel and finely dice the shallots and garlic. Set aside.

Step 3

Dice the cooked ham into small cubes, approximately the same size as the chopped mushrooms.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil, allowing the butter to melt and combine with the oil.

Step 5

Add the shallots to the skillet and sauté until they become translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent browning.

Step 6

Add the garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, stirring constantly to release its aroma.

Step 7

Increase the heat slightly and add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms release their moisture and the liquid evaporates.

Step 8

Sprinkle in the fresh thyme leaves and stir to combine.

Step 9

Add the diced ham to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to heat through and absorb the flavors from the mushroom mixture.

Step 10

Pour in the dry white wine and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Allow the liquid to reduce until nearly evaporated, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 11

Season the mixture with kosher salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well to distribute the seasoning evenly.

Step 12

Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.

Step 13

Serve the duxelle with ham warm as a filling for crepes, a topping for toast, or a side dish. Enjoy!
