Level Of Cooking Medium
Ingredients
- Portobello Mushrooms 12
- Finely Chopped Ginger 1 tablespoon
- Finely Chopped Garlic 1 tablespoon
- Olive Oil 2 tablespoons
- Salted Butter 2 tablespoons
- Grated Mozzarella Cheese 1 cup
- Dried Oregano 1/2 teaspoon
- Red Chilli Flakes 1/2 teaspoon
- Black Pepper Powder 1/2 teaspoon
- Peri Peri Sauce with Wild Herbs or Chilli Sauce 4 tablespoons (used to marinate the mushrooms)
- Salt to taste
Method
Step 1
Wash the Portobello Mushrooms well and de-stem them. For marinating the mushrooms, take them in a box/container, apply salt, black pepper powder, peri peri/chilli sauce, finely chopped ginger and garlic and olive oil on them. Close the lid of the container and give the container a nice shake so that all the ingredients mix well. Set aside for an hour.
Step 2
Pre-heat the Gas-Oven Tandoor or Barbecue Grill for 5-10 minutes before cooking (very essential to get a nice smoky flavour). Once it’s nice and hot place the portobello mushrooms (cups facing down, as they release juices at first) and cover it up (if using a gas oven tandoor) for 10 minutes.
Step 3
After 10 minutes check the mushrooms. Brush them with butter, turn the side, brush the other side with butter and let them cook for 5-7 minutes to get a nice smoky flavour. After 5-7 minutes, turn the side, check if the mushrooms are well cooked. Now, sprinkle some grated mozzarella cheese on the portobello cups.
Step 4
Take them out on a plate. Sprinkle dried oregano and red chilli flakes on them. Cut them into half or serve them full. These Roasted Portobello Mushrooms taste delectable both hot or cold.
I am going to take these to Angie’s Fiesta Friday No. 156 and enjoy with my friends there.
Bon Appétit!
