Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 500 g mushrooms
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp paprika powder, hot
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 2 hours 10 minutes

Base for ragouts or simply as a topping on salad

Are your mushrooms not flavorful enough or do you find their texture too soft? The Italians have a secret tip: lost mushrooms! Their texture becomes significantly firmer and retains this even in ragouts, etc. Clean and halve the mushrooms. Crush the garlic and mix it with the spices and oil to make a marinade. Then mix well with the mushrooms and bake in the oven at 160°C (convection oven) for 2 hours. The mushrooms will lose a lot of their mass but gain significantly in flavor. I use them directly as a salad topping or as the base for delicious ragouts.
