Description

Mushrooms on toast is a brunch classic, so why not use girolles when they are in season? The meatiness of their texture makes them perfect for piling up on toast, all bound in a creamy, rich sauce.

Ingredients

250g girolles, sliced in half if large
1/4 small banana shallot, sliced into fine rings
Small handful parsley, finely chopped
1 heaped tablespoon creme fraiche
2 cloves garlic, crushed or finely grated
2 slices toast
Small squeeze lemon juice
Butter for cooking

Method

Heat a generous slice of butter in a frying pan and add the shallot. Fry until soft - around 5 minutes - then add the mushrooms.
Let the mushrooms fry undisturbed until they begin to take on some colour, then add the garlic and stir them. Continue cooking until they are golden and soft.
Once the mushrooms are cooked, stir through the creme fraiche and lemon juice. Pile up on top of hot toast and scatter with the parsley. Add the shallot rings, and serve.
