Hints & tips
Mushrooms - Try using swiss brown mushrooms as they have a much deeper and earthier flavour than the white varieties of mushrooms. They have a robust umami flavour and firm texture that holds better during the cooking process.
Porcini powder - Add a shake or two of porcini powder over each plate before serving for extra mushroom flavour.
Serving suggestion - Serve with broccolini and garlic bread
Freezing - This dish is suitable for freezing.
