Potatoes with mushrooms in a slow cooker - the best recipes
A whole squad of kitchen gadgets helps us prepare food for the family with pleasure and imagination, without spending a lot of time and effort.
The favorite family dish - potatoes with mushrooms - is prepared in a slow cooker so quickly and easily that the supply of wild mushrooms may not be enough.
This iconic dish can be prepared with various additions and using several simple technologies, which we will consider.
The slow cooker allows us to be creative in our cooking. We can fry, stew, boil and bake foods in its bowl. Absolutely magical dishes are obtained if we combine various methods of processing products, including outside the bowl of the device.
Let's look at a recipe for potatoes with dried forest mushrooms in several cooking options in a slow cooker. If your reserves of “forest meat” run out, it will be the turn of champignons, which always “grow” in abundance on store shelves.
Preparing dried mushrooms for cooking
Before cooking, dried wild mushrooms should be soaked in water for a couple of hours and then rinsed thoroughly. Boil the washed mushrooms in a small amount of water for 15 minutes. We do not drain the water - we will use it instead of water or broth for stewing potatoes. Next, they need to be cut into convenient pieces, if necessary.
How to calculate the required amount of dried mushrooms if the recipe calls for fresh ones? Remember: we reduce the weight of a fresh product by 6-8 times and get the weight of a dried one! For example, 500 g of fresh whites = 80-90 g of dried ones.

Preparation
- We have already boiled the dry mushrooms and cut them. Peel the onion and chop it into tiny cubes. Pour oil into the bowl of the device and heat it on the “Baking” mode for 3 minutes. Open and put onion and prepared mushroom slices into the oil, pour in butter and fry them in the same mode for 20 minutes, stirring.
- While the onions and mushrooms are fried, peel the potatoes and cut into medium-sized slices. Open the bowl and throw the potatoes into it. Salt, season with spices and pour in 2 cups of mushroom broth, which we left after boiling the dried mushrooms.
- Set the appliance to “quenching” mode and cook for 40 minutes.
This recipe for potatoes with mushrooms also deserves the title “classic”, because mushrooms and sour cream go perfectly in any dish.
For this dish you need the following products:
- 100 g dry mushrooms.
- 1 kg of potatoes.
- 2 onions.
- 400 ml sour cream 20% fat.
- 1 cup mushroom broth.
- 100 g hard cheese.
- Salt - to taste and spices for mushroom dishes.
We will prepare potatoes with mushrooms in a slow cooker using the simplest technology: we prepare dried forest mushrooms as we described above, and chop the remaining components as usual. Onions - into small cubes, potatoes - into slices, and three cheeses on a grater on the side with large knives.
First pour the oil into the bowl and add all the ingredients of the dish at the same time. Salt, season with spices, pour a glass of mushroom broth and stir. Pour sour cream on top. Set the “Stew” mode and cook for 50 minutes.

How to quickly cook beef stroganoff in a slow cooker
For beef stroganoff, take pulp without veins or films. Rinse the fillet and pat dry with a paper towel. Cut into not too thin slices and beat lightly. Then cut into long strips.
Peel the onions, rinse and cut into rings of medium thickness. Pour vegetable oil into the pan of the device. Turn on the “baking” mode and heat it well. Add a piece of butter. Place onion rings in one layer and fry until golden brown.
Roll the pieces of meat in starch or flour. Place beef on top of onions in a single layer. Fry without closing the lid for a quarter of an hour. Then carefully turn over and season with spices and salt.
Wash the tomatoes, pour boiling water over them and remove the peel. Rub the tomatoes through a fine grater or grind in a blender. Add the resulting mass to the beef and mix. Simmer for another ten minutes. Add sour cream little by little, stirring. Switch the device to the “quenching” mode and cook for a quarter of an hour. Serve with side dish.
Use only fresh or chilled meat for cooking. The calorie content of the dish depends on the fat content of sour cream. If you don't have fresh tomatoes, you can replace them with tomato sauce or juice.

History of Beef Stroganoff
Translated from French, the name stands for “beef Stroganov style.” This is an invented dish that has become widespread since 1871, when it was first published in the cookbook “A Gift for Young Housewives or a Means to Reduce Household Expenses.” Its author, Elena Molokhovets, was severely criticized after the revolution for her expensive recipes and bad attitude towards ordinary people.
And the name itself was given to the dish in honor of the Count from Odessa, Alexander Grigorievich Stroganov (1795-1891), who was a restaurateur and loved meat, but at an advanced age he lost his teeth, and the cooks cooked it so that it was not only tasty, but also soft.
Originally, beef stroganoff was always made from beef, but now it is made from both pork and chicken.
