Nut Stuffed Mushrooms

[Guest guest]

This recipes originally came from Vegetarian Cooking Without by

Barbara Cousins. I have made some simple changes. My son started

cooking these (after having them at home) to take to work for his

meals and everyone wanted the recipe!

 

 

Nut Stuffed Mushrooms.

 

1 - 2 flat mushrooms per person (this recipe will fill around 6

mushrooms around 2 1/2 - 3 inches across)

1 large onion

2 cloves garlic

a little oil for frying

1/2 cup roasted hazelnuts (walnuts work really well too. My 1/2 cup

is very heaped)

1/2 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp dried rosemary

2 tbsp fresh herbs (I use parsely and chives in equal amounts, and

am very generous with the amounts but don't actually measure them)

salt and freshly ground black pepper

 

 

Remove stems from mushrooms, and dice. Dice the onion and crush the

garlic. Fry the chopped mushroom stalks, onion and garlic in a

little oil until onion has browned.

 

Grind the nuts in a food processor. Add herbs and a little slurp of

olive oil.

 

Add onion mixture to nuts and mix together. Add salt and pepper to

taste.

 

Stuff mushrooms with mixture. Bake at around 400F (200C) for around

1/2 an hour or until mushrooms are cooked through.
