How to Make Walnut Wild Mushroom Turnovers

  1. Finely chop 2 large shallots. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
  2. Add 8 ounces of sliced mixed wild mushrooms to the skillet. Cook until all liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme leaves and 2 tablespoons of stock. Simmer until the mixture is almost dry, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup of toasted and chopped walnuts, 2 tablespoons of sour cream, and 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a small saucepan. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  6. Roll out each slice of bread using a rolling pin until paper-thin. If the bread dries out, lightly spritz with water.
  7. Place about 1 tablespoon of the mushroom mixture in the center of each bread slice.
  8. Brush the edges of the bread with melted butter.
  9. Fold the bread over the filling to form a triangle, and crimp the edges to seal.
  10. Repeat with remaining bread and mushroom mixture. (You can tightly wrap the turnovers and refrigerate at this point for up to overnight.)
  11. Place the turnovers on a baking sheet and brush with melted butter.
  12. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
