Again a basic recipe, that always was devoured by the vegetarian crew.
If one is not cooking vegetarian, one could fry off a bit of bacon, use the fat to saute the onions, and crumble the bacon into the stuffing. A sagey sausage would work quite well here also ...
For this dish, I usually use large cremini mushrooms, but one could go with large portobellos, the cooking time and stuffing amount would need to be adjusted.
If one is using very large portobellos, one could leave a nest in the stuffing and nestle a very small cracked egg inside, thence bake for a quite posh twist.
I've specified a full cup of stuffing here, depending on the amount of minced mushrooms from the stems and how much the cook down, some maybe left over, Just take the extra, and make a stuffing ball or balls and bake them off with the mushrooms.
As always, this is basic, do explore and enjoy new culinary adventures .
