Stuffed mushrooms: The perfect snack delight for any occasion

During the mushroom-picking season, mushrooms might be somewhat overlooked. However, they make a comeback when guests are expected, a family gathering is being organised, or a party with friends is on the horizon. The humble mushrooms then transform into delectable stuffed snacks. They are so appetising that it's hard to resist them when they appear on the table.

Mushrooms are often stuffed with minced meat, but this recipe is quicker, simpler, and more economical. Adults will tuck in right away, but children may also be enticed. Wild mushrooms can be eaten no earlier than 12, whereas cultivated mushrooms can be included in the diet sooner.

All you need are a few simple ingredients that you can find in any kitchen: mushrooms, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, and cheese. In just a few moments, you can prepare delicious stuffed mushrooms perfect for a party snack or a light dinner. You can add other favourite herbs to the stuffing, such as rosemary, thyme, or oregano.

Ingredients:

• 16 large mushrooms,
• 1 large onion,
• 1 clove of garlic,
• 60 grams of grated yellow cheese,
• 60 grams of butter,
• 60 grams of breadcrumbs,
• Chopped parsley,
• Salt and pepper to taste,
• Oil.

Instructions:

1. Wash the mushrooms thoroughly and cut off the stems. You don't need to peel them.
2. Finely chop the onion and garlic. You can press the garlic through a garlic press.
3. Heat oil in a pan and sauté the onion and garlic.
4. Add the chopped mushroom stems, breadcrumbs, and spices, and mix well.
5. Fill each mushroom cap with the prepared stuffing.
6. Sprinkle with grated yellow cheese and place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees Celsius for about 10 minutes until the cheese melts and turns golden brown.

Delicious and simple stuffed mushrooms are now ready to eat. You can additionally drizzle them with garlic, cheese, or tomato sauce. Enjoy!

Mushrooms can also be stuffed with other fillings. Minced meat sautéed earlier with onions and garlic, cooked millet or buckwheat with dried tomatoes, herbs, and nuts, or a mixture of finely chopped vegetables, deli meats, and cheese will work well here.
