Cheesy Stuffed Mushrooms | How to make Stuffed Mushrooms

On one of my visits to a restaurant in Paris, I decided to go vegetarian and ordered a Mushroom Cheese Burger for the very first time in life. I was expecting a patty with a slice of cheese just how one would serve in India. But I was taken by surprise when a huge Portobello mushroom stuffed with cheese and jalepino peppers was thrust into my burger buns. Not knowing whether to dig in or order something else. Reluctantly I grabbed a bite and there was a burst of flavours in my mouth. The combination of the ingredients was just on point. I so loved this dish that I tried to recreate it minus the buns with an Indian touch to it. It’s prepared with minimum ingredients and its quite healthy for you. So hope you like the cheesy stuffed mushrooms 🙂

Tips

  • You can use any type of cheese. I have used Gouda.
  • At 8 minutes you can check on the mushrooms and see if they have turned golden brown, if not you can increase the time to another 5 more mintues
