Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms

Ingredients:

• 8-10 large mushroom caps

• 1 cup finely chopped mushroom stems

• 1 tsp chili flakes

• 1 tsp oregano

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• 1 stick of cheese

• 1 tsp oil (for cooking)

  
  

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Mushrooms: Clean the mushroom caps with a damp cloth and carefully remove the stems. Finely chop the stems and set the caps aside.

2. Make the Filling: In a pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and sauté for about a minute until they soften. Season with salt, chili flakes, oregano, and white pepper. Mix well to combine.

3. Add Cheese: Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add the cheese. Return the mixture to the pan, stirring continuously until the cheese melts and blends smoothly with the mushroom mixture.

4. Stuff the Caps: Generously spoon the cheesy filling into each mushroom cap, packing it in well.

5. Cook the Mushrooms: In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed. Place the stuffed mushrooms in the pan, cover with a lid, and cook for about 4-5 minutes , or until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is bubbly on a low flame.

6. Serve: Enjoy these cheese stuffed mushrooms warm as a delightful appetizer or party snack!

Feel free to customize the filling with your favorite herbs, spices, or additional ingredients like spinach or diced peppers. Enjoy your cooking!
