Devilled mushrooms

Method

• step 1

  Prepare and clean the wild mushrooms by brushing off any dirt and trimming away any woody stalks.

• step 2

  Heat a heavy frying pan over a medium-high heat, add a drizzle of garlic oil and fry the mushrooms for 2 mins or until they’ve started to colour and any liquid that has been released has evaporated. Add the chilli flakes and some seasoning, and cook for a minute more.

• step 3

  Add the stock and simmer the mixture until the liquid has thickened and almost evaporated. Pour in the cream and bubble until thickened and reduced.

• step 4

  While the mushrooms are simmering, toast the sourdough and divide it between two plates.

• step 5

  Add the chives to the mushrooms and taste for seasoning. Spoon the mushrooms over the toast to serve.
