Preparation
Step 1
Make Basil Vinaigrette and set aside.
Step 2
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss mushrooms with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread into an even layer on sheet tray and roast until just golden brown, about 25 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan over medium heat, bring milk to a simmer. Slowly whisk in semolina flour. Continue whisking until thickened, about 2 minutes. If too thick, continue to add milk until desired consistency. Remove from heat and stir in butter until melted, then add 6 ounces of the goat cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
