Notes

  • Clean the mushrooms gently with damp kitchen paper to remove loose dirt before slicing and cooking.
  • Don't cut the mushrooms too thinly as they will reduce in size during cooking.
  • Use the mushroom stems as well as the mushroom caps for the best flavor.
  • Add the cream to the pan once you have cooked off all of the liquid released from the mushrooms.
