Makes: 18-20 buttom mushrooms
Ingredients
• Button Mushrooms, 18-20 medium sized
• Onion, 1 large (chopped)
• Garlic cloves, 2-3 (chopped)
• Bell peppers, 1 medium (finely chopped)
• Mozzarella Cheese, ½ cup grated
• Salt and pepper
Method
Start by cleaning your mushrooms. To do that take a damp kitchen towel and clean the top part of the mushrooms. Remember to take a moist cloth not wet. Remove excess water before cleaning.
Next, remove the stems of the mushrooms by twisting the top slightly. Chop the stems up into fine pieces and set aside to be used later. Coat the mushroom caps with oil and keep aside.
Preheat the oven at 200 degrees Celsius for about 10 mins.
In a heavy-bottomed pan heat up some oil and saute garlic in it until golden and fragrant. Add in the chopped onions and cook until translucent in color. Next, add in the bell peppers and mushroom stems, and fry them.
Once the mushroom stems are tender season your stuffing with salt and pepper and let it cool slightly. Once cool mix in ¼ cup of cheese in it.
Next, stuff the caps with stuffing and top with some more grated mozzarella.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius.
Serve immediately.
