Background

This chipotle mushroom is super easy to make and it can be served in various ways – in tortilla/taco; on a piece of toast; as topping on pizza or pastry tarts; as a side dish with grilled meat or as tapas in a menu. I also like using as stuffing for sweet potatoes and baked potatoes, but it would also work with squash, courgette and marrow.

Ingredients

1 red onion
2 cloves of garlic
1 Tbsp olive oil
200g chestnut mushrooms
1 red pepper
1 tsp spicy chipotle paste
1 tsp dried oregano
2 tomatoes, chopped
Water
Lime
Coriander leaves

Instructions

Thinly slice the red onion and garlic. Cut the mushrooms into thick slices or chunks. Cut the red pepper into bite-sized chunks
Heat the oil in a frying pan, then sauté the onion for 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and oregano, then add mushroom and red pepper chunks. Add the chipotle paste and stir to coat well, then add the chopped tomatoes. Add a drop of water and a squeeze of lime juice.
Put a lid on, turn down the heat and cook for 10 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
Season to taste.
Serve with chopped coriander leaves and lime wedges on the side.
