Tools you may need to make Creamy Mushrooms
Medium size frying pan/skillet, cutting board, sharp knife, wooden spoon
How to make Creamy Mushrooms
Step One
In a medium fry pan/skillet melt the butter over a medium heat, add the sliced mushroom to the melted butter and gently cook. Stir occasionally to avoid sticking.
Step Two
As the liquid from the mushrooms slowly gathers in the pan season with salt and pepper. Add a little more butter if required to avoid sticking.
Step Three
Continue to gently cook until the mushrooms are tender, this should take approximately 5-7 minutes. There should be moisture from the mushrooms in the bottom of the pan, do not allow it to dry out.
Step Four
Once the mushrooms are tender add the cream. Simmer gently for a few minutes until the sauce thickens.
Step Five
If you accidently add too much cream, thicken the sauce by adding small amounts of corn flour to the liquid until desired texture is achieved. Just make sure you give the corn-flour time to cook for a few minutes – it will thicken quite quickly.
Serve on your choice of toast or crusty bread for a delicious lunch.
