Background

This Italian-style stuffed mushroom is perfect for a lazy weekend lunch, served with a green salad. Alternatively it’s a perfect side dish for a steak. It’s ready within just 15 minutes - and it’s very filling too!

Ingredients

2 large flat mushrooms
5-6 sundried tomatoes from jar
1 handful of basil or parsley leaves
1 Tbsp pine nuts
50g Gorgonzola (approx)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Cut off the stems of the mushrooms and chop these up roughly. Put the chopped mushroom bits, the pine nuts, basil leaves and sundried tomatoes in a small food processor. Add a few drops of the oil from the jar and whiz until you get a textured paste.
Spread the paste onto the mushrooms then crumble the cheese on top.
Bake for about 10-15 minutes.
Serve hot.
