Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat broiler. Position rack 6 inches from heat source.

  2. Step 2

    In a 2-quart oval or 2½-quart round souffle dish, melt butter at 100 percent power for 2 minutes. Stir in potatoes and mushrooms. Cook, uncovered, at 100 percent for 5 minutes. Add scallions, ½ teaspoon salt, pepper, bread crumbs and peas. Cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Whisk together remaining ingredients including 1 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Pour over vegetables; stir. Cover tightly with microwave plastic wrap. Cook at 100 percent for 5 minutes.

Uncover and cook 2 minutes.

Chanterelles are a fall mushroom, so make this in the fall!

Doubled the chervil, but it is still overwhelmed by the gruyere.

I didn't make this in the microwave and I loved it!

No need to cut a slit in the plastic--just remove it and replace it. Otherwise, surprisingly easy and tasty.
