    Hey guys,

    I just wanted to share a brilliant recipe I found for mushroom risotto - and there's no cream or anything in it so it is nice and healthy, and it's pretty quick and easy too!

    Here is the link: http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/database/mushroomrisotto_65916.shtml

    Enjoy!

    I can second the recommendation for this recipe - I got it out of the BBC Good Food mag a while back, and it's one of my favourites. :T

    I find the quantities quite large though - (for us) this recipe makes enough for 6 (depends on your portion sizes I guess)

    It also freezes well, so no problems if it does make too much! I only make 1/2 the recipe (2 of us), and of that we eat 2/3rds and freeze 1/3 for another meal with sausages or something to fill up.

    No probs!

    Yeah I usually find that it does make a lot, usually it makes enough for three large portions in my house :-) I usually eat it with some nice buttered bread too!

    I bought a huge punnet(?) of value mushrooms 2 weeks ago and they have now all started to get very close to needing throwing, what can I make with them?

    Did think mushroom soup but wondered if anyone else had any tried and tested mushroom recipes

    Thankyou:D

    Mushroom stroganoff!

    Sauté the sliced mushrooms, with some onion if you got it. Get 'em nice and soft. Add some white wine (could probably use veg/chicken stock) and mustard (pref wholegrain), simmer for a bit (10 mins?).Stir through some yoghurt/sour cream/creme fraiche/similar. Serve with rice.

    If you have any meat around, it's good with pretty much any cubed meat added.
