Step 1 of 5

Place dried porcini mushrooms into a small bowl. Cover with boiling water and stand for 20 minutes to soften. Drain, reserving 2 tbs liquid and roughly chop.

Heat 40g butter and oil in a large frying pan over medium- high heat. Add onion, garlic and mushrooms. Cook for 20 minutes or until mushrooms are golden and liquid has evaporated. Add reserved porcini mushroom liquid, orange rind, orange juice, brandy and thyme leaves. Cook for 5 minutes or until liquid has almost evaporated. Cool.

Transfer mushroom mixture to food processor. Add sour cream, season with salt and pepper and process until smooth. Spoon into a 2-cup capacity serving bowl and refrigerate.
