Stuffed mushrooms

Mumto2

I've got some big flat mushrooms (10p from tescos :T). Have made a stuffing from breadcrumbs, garlic, S&P, bit of cheese.

Question is, do I need to precook the mushrooms, or do I just bung the stuffing on top and shove them in the oven.

Can't seem to find any simple recipes like what I'm trying to do.

Thanks

Pink.

Hi Mumto2,

I brush the mushrooms with oil, add the stuffing and pop them into the oven on a baking tray.

There are some recipes on this thread:

Large Flat Mushrooms?

I'll add your post to that one later to keep the suggestions together.

A brilliant meal if you can find fresh but reduced mushrooms. In my freezer I keep quantities of breadcrumbs with grated cheese and onion, and add whatever fresh herbs I have available. Ham or bacon can be fried up and added to this mix, and the result is very tasty. I am still working on what can succesfully be served with it.

Thanks all - I did the stuffing like I said, just sprayed mushrooms with a little oil first, then bunged them straight in the oven.

They were lovely and hubby really enjoyed them.

Like the bacon/ham idea and will give that a whirl next time.

Well done Mum22 on your whoopsie. Don't want to hijack the thread but I just love mushroms!

Problem is it's generally so much cheaper to buy a large pack of SP ones but how do you keep them fresh? The ones in plastic punnets sweat so much, it's hard to get them to last a week.

Any ideas??

Paper bag in the bottom of the fridge!

Really gorgeous with some Boursin cheese in the mushrooms;)

Buy loose ones in paper bags if you can (better for the environment as well). If you do have to buy a plastic container, take the lid off or pierce it before putting them in the fridge.
