Ingredients

  • 1 piece sourdough toast (£1.85/10)=(£0.18)
  • 1 handful of mushrooms (I used shitake) (£1.50/4)=(£0.38)
  • 1 tbsp butter, salted (£1.45/10)=£0.15)
  • 1 clove garlic (£0.25/4)=(£0.06)
  • 2 tbsp low fat cream cheese (£0.80/4)=(£0.20)
  • 1 handful rocket (£0.60/4)=(£0.15)
  • ¼ lemon, juiced (£0.20/4)=(£0.05)
  • Optional - sprinkle of fresh parsley

Cupboard Essentials

  • ½ tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Optional chilli flakes

Instructions

  • Lightly butter both sides of the sourdough and toast in a pan. Frying for 1 minute on each side on a high heat.
  • Next, add the rapeseed oil and mushrooms into the pan. Distribute across the pan so they aren't touching. Leave to brown on a high heat for a couple of minutes then stir.
  • Reduce the heat and add the soy sauce, butter and garlic. Season with salt and lots of pepper and fry for a couple more minutes. Set the mushroom mix aside.
  • Add a layer of cream cheese onto your crispy toast, a sprinkle of rocket and then the saucy browned mushrooms. Add a squeeze of lemon juice

Notes

  • Avoid overcrowding the pan to prevent steaming and achieve caramelisation.
  • Let the mushrooms brown by refraining from stirring them initially.
  • Season mushrooms with salt, pepper, and soy sauce for umami flavor. Garnish with peppery rocket and add parma ham or prosciutto for indulgence.
