Ingredients
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 11 ounces mixed wild mushrooms, wiped clean
- 2 cloves of garlic, 1 peeled and finely chopped, the other halved
- A few sprigs of fresh thyme, leaves picked
- A few sprigs of fresh parsley, leaves picked
- A sprig of summer savory, leaves plucked (optional)
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 dried red chili, crumbled
- A small knob of butter
- 1 lemon
- 2 slices of sourdough bread
Yield
Serves: 2 servings
Preparation
Put a large heavy frying pan, big enough to hold all the mushrooms in one layer, over heat and add a couple of glugs of extra virgin olive oil. Depending on the size of your mushrooms, leave any small ones whole but tear, break or slice the larger ones up. Add them all to the pan and give it a shake to toss the mushrooms in the oil.
Add the chopped garlic and fresh herbs and shake the pan again. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and the crumbled chili and leave to fry gently for a few minutes. If the mixture becomes dry, pour in a little more oil.
Once the mushrooms have got some color going on, after about 3-4 minutes, add the butter and a squeeze of lemon juice to give a nice twang -- don't go overboard here, you don't need much -- and toss again.
To finish this off and make it into a lovely, creamy sauce, spoon 2-3 tablespoons of water into the pan. Simmer for a little longer, until you have a lovely simple sauce that just loosely coats the mushrooms. Now toast your bread.
When toasted, rub the bread with the cut side of the remaining clove of garlic. Place each slice on a serving plate, pile the mushrooms and the creamy juices from the pan on top and tuck in. So good!
