Mushroom bruschetta

By Abigail Donnelly
4 to 6
Easy
20 minutes
10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 Woolworths olive ciabatta loaf, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled and halved
  • 1 T extra virgin olive oil
  • 400 g brown mushrooms, quartered
  • 1⁄4 cup Woolworths vino cotto
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Method

Heat a griddle pan over a high heat and toast the ciabatta until golden. Remove from the heat and rub with the garlic.

In a separate pan, heat the olive oil over a medium heat and brown the mushrooms for 5 minutes. Add the vino cotto and reduce until syrupy.

Season the mushrooms and serve on the toast.

Cook's note: Toast rubbed with garlic is one of Italy’s most famous antipasti. In this version, vino cotto – a syrup made from reduced grape must – adds delicious sweetness to the earthy mushrooms.
