This is a dish I frequently serve as a starter, or to a vegetarian as a main course. The ingredients are fairly flexible, but I like to serve with French Goats Cheese. It is so simple, and very quick to prepare.

Ingredients
1 large spread/flat mushroom per person
Goats Cheese [French or Welsh]
Salted Butter
Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper

Cooking Instructions

1. Warm some olive oil and a few knobs of butter in a pan, and place the spread mushrooms top side down. Lightly fry for 2-3 minutes, then turn and fry the other side. The mushrooms should only be lighted cooked at this stage, just enough to colour and partially cook
2. Place the mushrooms in an flat over wish [spread side up]. Top with Butter, Crushed Garlic, & Goat Cheese. Then season lightly.
3. Depending on the size of the mushrooms [I have some which are around 8 inches in diameter!]. Around 15-20 mins for a good size mushroom, but keep your eye on them!
4. Serve with warm crusty bread as a starter, or with an array of vegetables for a vegetarian main

Some variations of this dish I have used involve adding bacon, panchetta, serrano or blank forrest ham. Also nice topped with tomatoes and a fried egg for that extra special breakfast. They key is to experiment and make it your own.
