Equipment

  • 1 frying pan
  • 1 baking tray
  • 1 Grater
  • baking paper

Ingredients
  

  • 1 whole onion, large
  • 1 1/2 chorizo
  • 3 sprigs fresh parsley
  • 50 grams parmesan cheese, fresh
  • 1 tsp garlic, chopped or minced
  • 1/3 cup white wine
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 6-8 large mushrooms, whole
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 cups spinach or similar green leafy vegetable
  • spray oil

Instructions
 

  • Peel and core the mushrooms, then place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  • Chop the onion very small then fry it gently in the oil for 10 minutes. Keep the heat low-medium so that the onion cooks but doesn't brown.
  • While the onion is frying, chop the chorizo into very small pieces.
  • Add the chorizo to the pan and cook with the onion for a further 10 minutes or so.
  • Meanwhile, chop the pasley very finely and grate the parmesan cheese.
  • Once the onion has become translucent, add the wine to the pan. Turn up the heat a little and cook off the alcohol.
  • Sprinkle the mushrooms with salt & pepper and some of the cheese. Keep some cheese aside for garnishing.
  • Mix the chopped parsley and breadcrumbs into the pan. This should make the mixture very dry.
  • Fill the mushrooms with the mixture then cover and bake at 180C (365F) for 30 minutes.
  • After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake uncovered for a further 10 minutes. Remove from oven.
  • Chop & steam the spinach.
  • Serve the mushrooms on a bed of steamed spinach, topped with the remaining grated parmesan cheese & parsley.
