Ingredients

How to make it

  • Wash and pat dry the mushrooms. Cut in half, drizzle with oil and bake in a 375F oven on a lightly greased cookie sheet for about 10 min., or until lightly browned.
  • Chop the mushrooms in a food processor, until chopped finely.
  • Add flour, beaten egg, chopped basil leaves, salt and pepper to the mushrooms. Stir to combine.
  • Drop spoonfuls on a preheated skillet and fry in batches in about 3 tbsp. of oil on both sides until lightly golden. Add more oil if necessary during cooking. Remove to the plate and pour the cheese sauce on top.
  • For the cheese sauce:
  • Melt 1 tbsp. of butter in a skillet. Stir in the flour and cook 1 min. Whisk in the warm milk. Add thyme, salt and pepper. Whisk and cook until slightly thickened. Stir in the cheese. You can adjust the sauce consistency by adding more milk for the thinner sauce, or adding more cheese for the thicker version.

    When I ran into the title it sounded so crazy to me that I had to check it out. (Well, it's me ... being a straight meat & tatoes guy.)
    Anyway, it sounds like a grand side for a steak, as you said. Thanks.

    What a delicious looking veggie dish - yes, as a veggie burger, too, would be so good. We absolutely love mushrooms (and who can resist a cheese sauce), so this one is printed out and ready to go - you are great!
