As a starter, as a dinner, hot or cold, for guests, for children and for a vegetarians (removing the ham and adding salt), this leek, walnut and mushroom cake is one of those aces that never fails. It is great and it is very easy to do. I usually put it in individual molds, in the photo I have subsequently cut it into slices, which I thought was more beautiful, but you have many presentation options depending on the mold you choose.
For mushrooms, their season is coming soon. I love to go to the mountains for them, but I only recognize a couple of species and the others, they are still eaten, but I leave them, just in case. If you like to collect them, you can make this cake with all the flavor of natural mushrooms. If not, you can use frozen or canned. If you serve it cold, you can accompany it with yogurt sauce (in the Fala recipefel, you have one that combines very well). If you serve it in hot I suggest the warm vinaigrette sauce.

Hello, can I substitute raw mushrooms for the mushrooms? Or do I have to cook it before putting it in the glass? Thanks
Hello Ainhoa. Of course you can! and you don't need to cook it. It will cook with the 10 minutes at Varoma temperature that you have in the glass. If you see that they are missing a bit (I don't think so) add a couple more minutes. Then you follow the same process as with the mushrooms. I have to tell you that I have also tried it with mushrooms and it is very good, with a milder flavor than with mushrooms. Will you tell us how you have been? A kiss!
Hello!!! It looks good!!! One question: I would use frozen mushrooms. Is the weight of the mushrooms before defrosting or after, once drained? Thank you very much and congratulations on the page! You already have one more follower 🙂
Hello Rachel! Weight is after defrosting and draining. Thanks for your comment. And welcome to our blog! A hug!
Of course, Marisa! I always bet on natural products, as long as we can have them. You can do it with a selection of assorted mushrooms or with a single species, such as chanterelles, rovellones or rebollones (depending on the place, they are called differently), and you follow the recipe process, not the mushrooms that release more Water. A kiss!
How good it has to be! What encourages me even more to do so is the microwave option, because in these times, saving on electricity bills is what is necessary.
Perfect, Almudena! I put the three options for you to do it according to your preferences. Let us know how you did when you do. A hug!
Great, Javier! I'm very glad you liked it. I am going to correct the oven times, indicating that 25 minutes may be enough. It is that each oven is a world. Thank you very much for the information. A hug!
A question!!! To set it in the mold both in the microwave and in the oven, does the mold need to cover it ??? Thank you so much
Hello Eva! No, it does not need to be covered. Thanks to you pretty. A big kiss!
Hi Esther, it's a shame, but I can't guarantee that it will set correctly with an ingredient other than cream. A hug!

HELLO,
I have already tried it and it has been very good, very smooth. I have not put ham, and perhaps it has subtracted salty flavor, so it was a bit bland.
Oh, Carme, of course. If it only has the salt of the ham ... Next time add a little and you will see how it looks perfect on you. Thanks for the comment. A hug!
I have made this recipe many times (by the way, very good) and I have always used evaporated milk instead of cream. I say this in case anyone hesitates to change ingredients The blog is great.
