Mushrooms are in season. The versatile fungi, full of nutrition and flavour, are paired with red capsicums and a decent amount of garlic in this Spanish-inspired recipe by Angela Nicoletou.


Mushrooms with capsicum and garlic

Ingredients

500g mushrooms

1 red capsicum

6 cloves garlic, chopped

1 chilli, diced

1 sprig fresh thyme

½ cup white wine

¼ cup chopped parsley

¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

½ lemon

Method

Wipe any dirt off the mushrooms with some damp kitchen paper. Remove stalks and cut into quarters. Cut capsicum in half and then into thin slices.

Heat the olive oil in a frypan and add the mushrooms and capsicums, cooking until they begin to soften. Add the garlic, thyme and chilli and season. Cook until the mushrooms and capsicum have softened, add the wine and simmer until it has been reduced by half. Remove from heat, add lemon juice and garnish with parsley. Serve as a side dish or with polenta or mashed potato.
