Roasted Garlic Mushrooms

Ingredients:

  • 16 even-sized open cup mushrooms, stalks cut level
  • 3 tbsp olive or coconut oil
  • 1/4 c unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped very finely
  • 2 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 c fresh breadcrumbs

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/gas mark 6. Lightly fry the mushrooms, cap-side down, in hot oil for 20 seconds.

Arrange the mushrooms in a shallow roasting tin with the stalks facing upwards.

Mix together the butter, garlic, thyme, lemon juice and seasoning. Spoon a little garlic butter on to each mushroom, then lightly press the breadcrumbs on top. Either refrigerate for later use, or cook immediately in the oven for 10 minutes.
