This recipe is one of those occasions where using dried herbs instead of fresh ones is really not an option.
The fresh thyme and parmesan cheese work together to compliment the flavor of the mushrooms in a way that dried herbs simply cannot.
Making this dish using the larger field mushrooms also makes a great option for a vegetarian first course. But it’s equally tasty with other types of mushrooms as well.
Enjoy!
Stuffed Mushrooms w/ Parmesan & Thyme
Servings 6 servings
Ingredients
- 25 button mushrooms
- 1 onion
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 100 grams butter
- 2/3 cup bread crumbs
- 1/3 cup parmesan cheese
- extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt flakes
- pepper grinder
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 180 degrees (350 Fahrenheit).
-
Pull the stalk out of the centre of the mushroom caps and remove any excess stalk flesh left in the cap.
-
Finely chop the removed stalks.
-
In a heavy based fry pan, soften the onion in the butter and approx 3 tbsps of olive oil over medium heat for approx 5 minutes.
-
Add the garlic and the chopped mushroom stalks and cook a further 5 minutes.
-
Add the thyme and remove from the heat.
-
Add the bread crumbs to a large mixing bowl season with a little salt and pepper and add the contents of the pan, stir well.
-
Add the parmesan cheese and the parsley, mix well.
-
Using a teaspoon fill the mushroom caps with the mix, for the buttons you can overfill them and press the stuffing into a small mound sitting atop the mushrooms, for the field mushrooms just stuff them until the mix is level with the top of the mushroom.
-
Place the stuffed mushrooms in the fridge for 15-20 minutes, place on a lightly oiled oven proof tray and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.
-
Serve the buttons on a canape platter.
