Recipe: Easy Autumnal Stuffed Mushrooms

Patrick reporting for duty. This recipe was inspired by another of similar style in the Sunday Times Style magazine way back in 2011, though I’ve played around with it quite a bit.

Stuffed mushrooms are packed full of flavour. While I was a vegetarian for about three years they were always a joy to see take pride of place in a restaurant main. I still enjoy them after re-introducing meat into my diet and often can’t use them enough, they are one of my favourite vegetables.
