Chilli recipes

Mediterranean-style warm salad with organic feta and chilli jam

15 minutes

Baked mushroom and mozzarella burgers

Serves 2

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

4 mushroom steaks
olive oil, for brushing
sea salt flakes and freshly ground
black pepper
1 clove garlic, crushed
100 g thinly sliced mozzarella
a few sprigs of fresh oregano
ciabatta, sliced, for serving
finely grated Parmesan, for sprinkling

Method

Preheat the oven to 190°C.
Brush the mushroom steaks or quickly rinse and dry well. Trim the stalks. Brush with olive oil. Season and smear with garlic.
Sandwich with sliced mozzarella and oregano. Place on a square of greaseproof paper on a baking tray.
Bake for 15 minutes or until just cooked and still meaty.
At the same time, bake the sliced ciabatta, until crisp and golden.
Serve the mozzarella mushrooms on the toasted bread.
Spoon over the pan juices, sprinkle with Parmesan and add a twist or two of black pepper.
Serve immediately while the mozzarella is hot and oozing – it will toughen on cooling.

TASTE’s take:
When you run out of options for weekday dinners, try this easy, wholesome idea. Replace the bread with a fresh garden salad if you're counting carbs.
