Stuffed mushrooms recipe
Preheat the oven to 200°C /400°F or Gas 6 and get yourself two nice large, flat mushrooms.
Never wash the mushrooms, instead, wipe them with a damp paper towel.
Carefully remove the mushroom stems from the caps and chop them with the garlic.
Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan.
Add the chopped mushroom stalks and the garlic along with the spring onions. Cook over medium heat.
Stir for a minute or so and then add in the tomatoes and sweet pepper flakes.
Put the mushrooms into a shallow baking dish.
Spoon in the tomato and spring onion mixture and add top with the diced chargrilled peppers.
Mix together the two kinds of cheese and top each mushroom.
Cover the baking tray with foil and put it into the oven to cook for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and back in for a further 5 minutes.
By this time they should be piping hot and the cheese melted. Remove from the oven, and sprinkle over the parsley.
Serve with whatever you fancy, or just eat them as they are or with a hunk of fresh crusty bread.
You can buy roasted peppers in oil in most supermarkets or over on Amazon. Be sure to buy the ones in oil and not vinegar. 😉
