Description
Stuffed Mushrooms Recipe TL;DR
Ingredients
4–6 medium-large portobello mushrooms
125g halal beef strips (unsmoked, diced small)
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
4 tablespoons dried breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon dried sage
50g medium cheddar, grated
Halal beef strips β halal turkey strips: Use the same weight. Turkey is leaner, so add 1 teaspoon olive oil to the pan.
Shallot β Β½ small red onion: Dice extra-fine to match the shallot’s texture.
Dried sage β 1 tablespoon (3 teaspoons) fresh sage: Chop finely. Fresh sage has a milder flavor, so use roughly triple the dried amount
Cheddar β GruyΓ¨re or mozzarella: GruyΓ¨re adds nuttiness; mozzarella melts into longer strings but has less flavor.
Breadcrumbs β crushed crackers: Crush to a similar coarseness as panko for the best texture contrast.
Instructions
- Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Wipe the mushrooms to remove any dirt, then turn upside down and remove the stalks. Place on a baking tray top-side down.
- Fry the lardons for 8-10 mins until just starting to crisp up, then finely chop the shallot, mushroom stalks and garlic. Add to the lardons and fry on a moderate heat for about 5 mins until all the ingredients are cooked.
- Take off the heat and add the breadcrumbs and sage, then stir to make an even mixture. Spoon into the hollows of the mushrooms and sprinkle with the grated cheese.
- Bake for approximately 8-10 mins until the cheese has melted. Serve with crusty bread and a green salad.
