Caramelised mixed mushrooms

Caramelised mixed mushrooms are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side, a topping for steaks, or as a delightful addition to salads and pasta. The caramelisation process brings out the natural sweetness of the mushrooms, creating a rich and savory flavor. Here's how you can prepare this easy yet flavorful recipe.

Ingredients:

2 tbsp butter
30g
1 cup mushrooms
230g
2 tsp brown sugar
6g
2 tbsp vinegar
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Mushrooms:
- Clean and slice the mushrooms if they are not pre-sliced. Make sure they are relatively uniform in size for even cooking.
2. Heat the Pan:
- Place a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add the 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan.
3. Melt the Butter:
- Allow the butter to melt completely in the pan, ensuring it coats the bottom evenly.
4. Cook the Mushrooms:
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan with the melted butter. Spread them out evenly to ensure they all make contact with the pan.
5. Sauté the Mushrooms:
- Cook the mushrooms, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes or until they start to brown and soften. Ensure they do not stick to the pan by stirring gently.
6. Add Brown Sugar:
- Sprinkle the 2 teaspoons of brown sugar over the mushrooms. Stir well to combine, ensuring the sugar starts to melt and caramelize the mushrooms. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
7. Add Vinegar:
- Pour in the 2 tablespoons of vinegar. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the liquid reduces and forms a glossy coating over the mushrooms. This should take approximately 2-3 minutes.
8. Serve:
- Once the mushrooms are deeply caramelized and coated with a shiny glaze, remove them from the heat. Serve immediately as a side dish or use as a topping for steaks, toast, or salads.

Tips:

- Choose a variety of mushrooms for a more complex and interesting flavor profile.

- Ensure the mushrooms are evenly sliced to ensure consistent cooking.

- Don't overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary to avoid steaming the mushrooms.

- Use high-quality butter for the best flavor.

- Add garlic or herbs like thyme or rosemary for an extra layer of flavor.

- Serve immediately for the best texture and taste.

Cooking caramelised mixed mushrooms is a simple yet rewarding process. With just a few ingredients, you can achieve a dish that's bursting with flavor and perfect for many culinary uses. Follow the steps closely, and you'll have a delicious addition to your meal in no time!
