Sauteed Fiddleheads With Morel Mushrooms

Recipe Ingredients

1		Fiddlehead ferns - trimmed, rinsed
		= (be sure to remove the papery brown
		Skin)
1/2		Butter
4		Shallots - peeled, trimmed,
		And diced
3		Garlic cloves - peeled, trimmed,
		And diced
2 cups	474ml	Sliced trimmed quickly-rinsed morel
		Mushrooms
		Salt - to taste
		Coarsely-ground black pepper - to taste

Recipe Instructions

Steam the fiddleheads over boiling water for about 12 minutes. Test them as they cook to be sure they aren't overcooking. Fiddleheads will cook for different lengths of time depending on their size, their age, and the altitude.

While the fiddleheads are steaming, saute the shallots and the garlic in a skillet over medium high heat. Be very careful not to let them brown. They should wilt, but they shouldn't brown.

Add the sliced morels to the shallots and garlic, and saute for about six minutes, or until the mushrooms are well cooked (morels should never be eaten raw).

Drain the cooked fiddleheads and add the mushroom mixture. Toss well and serve hot.
