FOREST FLAVOUR

SERVING SUGGESTION:

Heat a little olive oil and a handful of thyme in a pan. Fry 3 packs sliced mixed mushrooms in batches. Strain off the liquid and set aside. In the same pan, fry 3 sliced shallots and 2 crushed garlic cloves until translucent. Add the fried mushrooms, then 1/2 cup vegetable stock and cook until the mixture reduces by half. Stir through 1/2 cup sour cream and 6 T plain yoghurt, then season to taste. Remove from the heat and serve with cooked Woolworths’ fresh gnocchi (plain or Gorgonzola).

Now that autumn is coming, it’s a good time to start bringing some flavourful mushrooms into your meal plans. What could be more delicious than a quick-and-easy mushroom stroganoff? Mushrooms are endlessly versatile (and so good at soaking up liquids and spices). Whether you opt for a large, firm brown mushroom with its robust, earthy taste (perfect for stews and casseroles), or the Portabellini (its mild, nutty flavour makes it ideal for salads, soups and sauces), there’s no end to the delicious dishes you can create. woolworths.co.za

There’s never an excuse for a mediocre cheese course. Pair Cinsault with baked Camembert, Viognier with Gorgonzola and Shiraz with fried halloumi.
