ROASTED PORTOBELLOS WITH PESTO

Place, rounded side down, on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Place in the oven and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, until the mushrooms are beginning to soften and throw off liquid.

ROASTED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set it aside.
• Prepare the mushrooms for roasting: Fill a small bowl with water. Wet a kitchen sponge (or a sheet of paper towel) in the bowl and squeeze out any excess water. Gently wipe the large mushroom caps to remove any dirt and debris.
• Remove the gills and the stem: Turn the mushrooms upside down and place one in the palm of your hand. Using a paring knife, slice off the mushroom's inner edges while slowly rotating its cap. Then, use a small spoon to gently scrape the mushroom's gills. Be careful not to dig too deep into the flesh of the mushroom. Continue working around the mushroom until you remove all of the gills. Remove the stem by gently twisting it from the bottom. Continue with the remaining mushrooms.
• Brush with oil and season: Place the portobello mushrooms on the parchment-lined sheet. Lightly brush each mushroom with approximately ½ teaspoon olive oil and season them with ¼ teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper on both sides. If you do not have a brush, you can also use a vegetable oil cooking spray to lightly coat them with oil.
• Roast in the oven: Arrange the mushrooms on the baking sheet with the gills side facing down. Bake them in the oven for 10 minutes, flip them, and then bake them for another 5-7 minutes.
• Serve while they are still warm.

PORTOBELLO PATTY MELTS

Steps:

• Caramelize onions. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet set over high heat. When it foams, add the onions and sprinkle with salt. Do not stir immediately. Wait 1 minute, then begin to stir frequently over high heat for 5 minutes or so, or until the onions have released some liquid and started to become translucent.
• Reduce the heat to medium, and cook, stirring often, for what will seem like a very long time, until the onions are fully melted and dark golden brown, approximately 30 to 40 minutes. Remove onions, and set them and the skillet aside. (You can caramelize the onions a day ahead of time and reheat slowly when you're ready to cook.)
• Take a small baking dish, and put into it olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar and minced clove of garlic. Add portobello caps, then cover with foil, and roast in a 400-degree oven for 30 to 45 minutes, turning once.
• Set the skillet to medium heat, and put four pieces of rye bread into the butter that remains from cooking the onions. Top each piece with a slice of cheese, then two portobello caps, then some of the caramelized onions, and finally another slice of cheese and another slice of rye. Use the spatula to press down on the packages, and after about a minute or so, carefully turn over each patty to begin to brown the other side. (You may need to add the additional butter.) Cook until the cheese is fully melted and the bread is golden brown and crisp on both sides. Slice in half before serving.

PORTOBELLO & BLUE CHEESE MELTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Mix the onion with the oil and vinegar, spread on a baking tray, then put the mushrooms on top, stem-side up, and scatter over the thyme and some seasoning. Cook in the oven for 15 mins, until starting to soften and caramelise.
• Crumble the cheese into the cavity of the mushrooms and cook for 5 mins more until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
• Split the ciabatta roll in half and lightly toast. Top with a handful of rocket, the sticky onions and the cheese-topped mushrooms. Serve with oven fries, if you like.

ROASTED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS WITH BLUE CHEESE
