Stuffed mushrooms sound so exotic. Many times in fancy restaurants, they are stuffed with crab meat or some such so I have never really indulged in them much. One attempt at tasting them in the local Malaka Spice was very disappointing. SO I set myself the task of making them at home and checking for myself, how hard it was to season a mushroom.

 

Hurdle Number One – No oven! With a firm resolve, I decided to try a pan grilled version and it did not disappoint taste wise. This is a very simple recipe, one I must have watched on TV several times by bigwigs such as RR, Giada and company. One thing I have learnt is, the simpler and lesser the ingredients, the better they need to be quality wise. The results I got cannot be achieved with bottled garlic, the Kraft Parmesan in the green bottle etc.

With fresh and quality ingredients, even a little will go a long way.

 

These stuffed mushrooms go really fast as a cocktail snack or ‘horse'( reference to Pu La’s Mongini). Don’t make the mistake of ‘tasting’ them as you make them 🙂

The seasoning permeates into the stuffed mushrooms very well and these taste awesome with the garlic, parmesan and parsley. They disappear pretty fast too. These are a must try, whether you are entertaining or just enjoying a quiet drink at home.
