Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams button mushrooms
- 30 grams unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 120 milliliters double cream (or heavy cream)
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 4 slices crusty bread or toasted baguette slices (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth or paper towel. Remove the stems if desired and slice them into thick pieces.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and slightly foaming.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Stir to coat them in the butter and oil.
Sprinkle the thyme leaves over the mushrooms and cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and any released liquid has evaporated.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour in the double cream. Stir gently to combine with the mushrooms.
Add the Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to create a creamy sauce, and let it simmer gently for 3–4 minutes.
Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the mushrooms.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve the mushrooms warm, either as a standalone dish or spooned over crusty bread or toasted baguette slices.
Enjoy this hearty and comforting English farmhouse classic!
