Background

I had some ripe Brie in the fridge and thought it would make a lovely, creamy sauce. So I made these sautéed mushrooms with Brie, which can be served on toast or with pasta as a vegetarian meal, or poured over grilled steak, pork chops or sausages. You can use Stilton if preferred.

Ingredients

1 garlic clove
1 onion
200g Brie (ripe)
200g chestnut mushrooms
4 sprigs of thyme, leaves only
1 Tbsp rapeseed oil to cook

Instructions

Finely chop the garlic and onion.
Heat the oil, then sweat the onion for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile slice the mushrooms.
When the onion is soft, add the garlic, thyme leaves and mushrooms. Stir for a minute, then put a lid on, turn down the heat and sauté for 8-10 minutes, under cover.
Crumble the cheese over the mushroom (rind removed, if preferred) and stir until you get a thick creamy sauce.
Season with salt and pepper (you can add a pinch cayenne or nutmeg too).
Garnish with fresh herbs (such as parsley, dill, chives or thyme - depending on your meal).
Serve warm.
