Here’s a simple and delicious Garlic Butter Sautéed Mushrooms recipe for you!
Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp butter (unsalted), add more for buttery goodness
- 1 tbsp olive oil/grapeseed oil
- 2 packets white button, cleaned and quartered (or sliced)
- 1 bulb garlic, chopped
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For enhanced flavours:
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp soy sauce (for umami flavor)
- ½ tsp dried thyme (or fresh thyme for extra aroma)
Instructions:
- Heat the Pan:
– Salt and black pepper to taste. - Sauté the Mushrooms:
– Add the quartered/sliced mushrooms to the pan. Let them cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes to
get a golden-brown sear.
– Stir and continue cooking for 5-7 minutes, until they release their moisture and turn tender. - Add Garlic and Seasonings:
– Lower the heat to medium, add chopped garlic, and stir well. Cook for 30 seconds until fragrant
– Add soy sauce (if using), thyme (if using), salt, and black pepper. Stir and cook for another 1-2
minutes. - Garnish and Serve:
– Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley (if using).
– Serve hot as a side dish or on toast, steak, pasta, or rice!
Tips:
- Use a large pan to avoid overcrowding so mushrooms caramelize properly.
- Don’t stir too often—let mushrooms brown for better flavor.
- Swap parsley for chives or basil for a different twist.
Did you know?
- Although white button mushrooms are labelled as “White”, they are not actually white. In reality, white button mushrooms often have a creamy, off-white or light beige color. They darken slightly as they age or are exposed to air, but remain wholesome and nutritious.
- Store mushrooms in a cool, dry place, ideally in a paper bag or loosely wrapped in a paper towel in the refrigerator.
- Mushrooms are porous and absorb water easily, making them mushy and affecting their flavour. Avoid soaking them in water. Clean them with a gentle brush or dry paper towel, or a quick rinse under cold running water before use will do.
Enjoy them as a side dish, over steak, pasta, rice, or even on toast! Quick and easy to prepare, this dish is a must-try for mushroom lovers.
