- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- 500 g (1.1 lb) chestnut mushrooms halved or quartered depending on their size
- 2 cloves garlic chopped
- 2 tbsp flat leaf parsley finely chopped, plus extra to garnish
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
Heat the olive oil and butter in a large frying pan over a medium to high heat. Add the mushrooms and the chopped clove of garlic and cook for 4 minutes, until browned. Add the chopped parsley and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.
- Vegan option – just use olive oil or vegan butter instead of regular butter.
- Low-fat option – use a light butter alternative or leave out the butter altogether for a healthier version.
- Herbs and spices – try adding some fresh thyme or rosemary for extra fragrance. A sprinkle of smoked paprika or chilli flakes will add some heat.
- Additional ingredients – for a tangy twist, try adding a splash of balsamic vinegar or lemon juice.
- Leftovers – use up any leftovers as a filling for an omelette or savoury crepe or stir into creamy pastas or soups for added depth of flavour.
- This garlic mushrooms recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.
