Roasted field mushrooms
Friday, June 23rd, 2006Such an easy to make yet impressive looking entree!
Ingredients
-
2 – 3 field mushrooms per person
-
Olive Oil
-
Shaved parmesan
-
Rocket
-
Balsamic vinegar
-
Butter
Method
- Clean or peel mushrooms and place in a single layer on an oven tray.
- Place half a teaspoon (or more if you can spare it!) of butter in the centre of each mushroom. I’ve seen Jamie Oliver use flavoured butter to do this – mixing herbs and chilli into it.
- Bake in 200 degree oven for 20 mins or until the mushrooms soften and start releasing their juices
- Meanwhile, wash the rocket leaves and toss with the parmesan. Then dress with the olive oil and balsamic. Toss.
- Just before serving, stack the mushrooms on top of each other on a plate. Layer some rocket salad on top.
- Drizzle extra balsamic around the plate if desired. Season with salt and pepper.
