Have I told you lately that I love mushrooms? Well, I do. So this recipe is automatically a winner for me, and I hope it will be for you too.
We threw it on top of pasta this time, but have also done it with mash or salad. It doesn’t have to be as heavy as this looks, but this hits the spot when you’ve got starving mouths to feed.
Over the past year I lost my mojo with cooking, and I seemed to make the same things over and over again, and didn’t put any love into it, cos I had nothing left to give. So it’s nice to be cooking again, and discovering recipes that I haven’t made in a while.
