BROWN BUTTER GARLIC MUSHROOM BITES WITH WHIPPED HOT HONEY YOGHURT

Ingredients 

  • 250g button mushrooms, cleaned and halved
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 30g butter
  • ⁠2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • ⁠1 small handful fresh parsley, chopped
  • ⁠½ lemon (zest + juice)
  • Salt and black pepper

Whipped Hot Honey Feta:

  • 150g feta
  • ⁠3 tbsp Greek yoghurt
  • 1-2 tsp honey
  • Pinch of chilli flakes
  • Squeeze of lemon juice
  • ⁠2-4 slices sourdough bread
  • ⁠Optional drizzle olive oil or chilli oil

Method 

  1. Heat a frying pan over a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the mushrooms and leave untouched for 3-4 minutes to help them caramelise.
  2. Stir the mushrooms and continue cooking for a further 4-5 minutes until golden brown and any excess moisture has cooked away.
  3. Reduce the heat slightly and add the butter. Once foaming, stir in the garlic and cook for 30-60 seconds, coating the mushrooms well.
  4. Remove from the heat and stir through the parsley, lemon zest and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season to taste.
  5. To make the whipped feta, blend or mash together the feta, yogurt, honey, chilli flakes and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.
  6. Toast the sourdough, spread generously with the whipped feta, then top with the garlic mushrooms.
  7. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil, if liked, and serve immediately.
