Cute, rounded, delicious.
Here it is Mr mushroom, in all its sexy rounded shape to show you another way to use stale bread, our new best friend.
Preparing this dish won't take you more than 30 minute, therefore you can use all the saved time to learn dancing before your romantic dinner (you can thanks me later).
Each time I prepare this recipe I think of my best friend Pia, the biggest mushrooms eater ever known. While planning a dinner together in Italy she always says : "Ti prego, i funghi ripieni!(please, cook stuffed mushrooms!).
So here are FUNGHI RIPIENI for Pia!
Ingredients
As you can see you only need few ingredients.
Start softening the bread with water as usual and then squeeze it removing the exceeding water.
Proceed gutting the mushrooms from their core helping yourself with a knife or teaspoon.
Heat up some EVOO with garlic in a pan on medium fire and cook the parts of mushrooms previously removed.
When they are ready mix them with softened bread, one egg, thyme, cheese and salt.
You can also add a second kind of cheese for example a smelly one like gorgonzola, or goat cheese.
Now you can start filling your empty mushrooms with the holy stuffing with the help of a spoon.
Sprinkle a baking pan with some Evoo and lay down all the mushrooms. End up seasoning the top of each mushroom with some pecorino cheese or parmesan cheese and some breadcrumb if you have it.
Bake for 2o-25 minutes on 180°.
Bon Bon Champignon, c'est très bon!
