Big juicy mushrooms on a toast with Serrano ham for a snack. For a flavoured variation, mix the softened butter with chopped fresh herbs such as parsley and thyme, or diced green olives and spring onions, or sun-dried tomato puree, or finely chopped garlic, or paprika with black pepper...

Steps

10 Minutes

1

Preheat the oven to 200ºC. Wash the mushrooms, and remove the stalks. You can either leave or spoon out the gills if you want a more subtle flavour.
2

Place the mushrooms in a hot frying pan, with the gills on top. Using half the butter, add a piece the size of a hazelnut to each one, then sprinkle all the mushrooms lightly with salt and ground black pepper. Cook over a medium heat until the butter begins to bubble and the mushrooms are juicy and tender.
3

Meanwhile, spread the remaining butter on the toasted bread and bake in the oven for 10 minutes. You can mix the butter with a curry paste if you want it spicy. Pile the ham and the mushrooms on top...and serve.
