I am not a mushroom fan, and yet due to its nutritional qualities, especially the Vitamin D content, I try and incorporate the fungus into my meals at least once a week. Most often it’s just thrown into a gravy or stir fried with some onions and bell peppers, this is the first time I’ve made it a hero and am I glad!
I’m not too sure what it is about mushrooms that i don’t quite like. I think it’s the earthiness. And yet when it’s tossed with caramelised onions and bell peppers and topped on a toast, it’s not that bad at all.
The recipe however takes the mushroom to another level all together. Its crispy, cheesy, yummy and quite a classic dish! What’s more it can be served as a starter or even included as sides in the main course. I love these double delight kind of dishes.

Cherry, what is potato flakes? How does one make them?
Hi.. Vegit makes something called Aloo Mash (comes in a yellow packing). You can use that. It’s basically dehydrated potato.
Wow, this piece of writing is pleasant, my sister is analyzing these things, therefore I am going
to convey her.
