Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Button mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 clove Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 30 grams Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Clean the button mushrooms thoroughly by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Do not wash them directly with water as they can absorb moisture.
Slice the mushrooms thinly and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, and salt. Set the dressing aside.
Finely mince the garlic clove and chop the fresh parsley.
Add the minced garlic and chopped parsley to the sliced mushrooms, tossing gently to combine.
Pour the lemon and olive oil dressing over the mushroom mixture. Toss everything together to ensure the mushrooms are evenly coated with the dressing.
Shave the Parmesan cheese into thin ribbons using a vegetable peeler, and add the cheese to the salad.
Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste, toss lightly again, and let the salad sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve immediately as a fresh and flavorful starter or side dish.
