GARLIC-BUTTER ROASTED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel and gently remove and discard stems.
• Drizzle oil into a large cast iron skillet to evenly coat. Place mushrooms into the skillet, cap-side down. Carefully sprinkle garlic into the mushroom cavities, taking care not to sprinkle directly into the skillet. Drizzle mushrooms with melted butter, then season with salt and pepper.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and return to the oven for 3 to 5 more minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with parsley. Let cool slightly before serving.

QUICK BBQ GARLIC MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• For the mushrooms field mushrooms are best but make sure they are nice and round in shape rather than flat. Remove the stems.
• Stuff the mushrooms full of garlic, don't be scared because anyone that doesn't like you with garlic breath probably didn't like you to begin with!
• Drizzle some olive oil over each mushroom.
• Place on a lightly oiled barbecue plate at medium temperature for a minute or two with the cup of the mushroom facing up. Check occasionally and cook until it is lightly browned on the bottom.
• Flip the mushroom over and cook a further two minutes on the other side.
• After two minutes flip again, scooping any lost garlic back into the cup of the mushroom (very important!).
• Now use a pair of tongs and tap each mushroom lightly in around ten places around the outside area. This is the trick and you should see the juices rising to the top and is what gives a juicy rather than dry flavor.
• Cook around another five minutes depending on barbecue temperature. Sometimes I like to turn the plate off at this point and leave for slowly cook for around ten minutes instead.

SAUTEED MUSHROOMS IN GARLIC

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and garlic; cook and stir until the mushrooms are a light golden brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in the basil.
• Reduce heat to low, and pour the wine into the skillet. Simmer until most of the wine has evaporated. Serve immediately.

CREAMY GARLIC MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Pour the oil into a flat, shallow frying pan and place over a gentle heat. Finely slice the garlic and shallots and add to the pan. Fry gently for a few minutes, stirring occasionally and ensuring the garlic and shallots do not start to brown or burn.
• Prepare your mushrooms by gently wiping any dirt from their surfaces with a piece of kitchen towel - never wash mushrooms as they will absorb the water and become slimy. Slice the mushrooms into chunky pieces and add to the pan, stirring so that they become coated with the oil.
• Once the mushrooms have all started to colour, pour the glass of wine into the pan and turn the heat up so that the alcohol burns off and the liquid starts to reduce.
• After a few minutes, the mushrooms should be cooked, so turn the heat back down quite low and add the cream to the pan along with black pepper according to taste. Stir everything around and heat gently for a couple of minutes.
• Preheat the grill to high.
• Transfer the mushrooms and cream mixture to two shallow, heat-proof dishes. Spinkle the grated cheese over the top of each and place the dishes under the grill. Keep an eye on these so that they don't start to burn - it should only take a couple of minutes for the cheese to be browned and bubbling.
• Stand each dish on a large plate (don't forget to warn guests how hot the dishes will be!) and serve with granary toast for mopping up the sauce.
• Variations:
• Reduced fat cream such as Elmlea works perfectly in this dish if you are counting calories. You could also omit the cheese and skip instruction point 6.
• For a slightly sharper taste, try using creme fraiche in place of the cream.
• To make the dish more substantial, try using finely sliced baby leeks in place of the shallots.
• If you are fond of blue cheese, you could grate a strong cheese such as stilton over the mushrooms before grilling - this produces a much richer dish.
