Mushroom Hash
Mushroom Hash is not a fussy food, it is very easy to get it right and really delicious.
Ingredients
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms 300g
- ½ cup chopped onions
- 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
- ½ cup chopped (de-seeded tomato (1 very large/3 small))
- 2 scotch bonnet (chopped)
- ½ green bell pepper (chopped (optional))
- salt
- 2 seasoning cubes
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- ½ teaspoons dry thyme
- 2 teaspoons butter
Instructions
- Rinse mushrooms in water, using a sieve, and drain into a paper towel.
- Slice Mushrooms.
- Pour oil into a saucepan and place over high heat. When the oil is very hot, add mushroom, onions and salt, it should sizzle.
- Fry until they are browned about 5 minutes.
- Add garlic, ginger, thyme and seasoning cubes. Fry until it smells aromatic.
- Add tomato, scotch bonnet and green bell pepper.
- Cover and cook until tender, 10-15 minutes.
- Add the knob of butter and stir. Take off the heat.
- Serve with fried, grilled or boiled potato cubes, yam, plantains, rice sweet potatoes, toast, fried egg etc.
Notes
- Do not soak your mushrooms or let them sit in water when you rinse them or else they will soak up the water.
- Wash mushrooms just before using.
- Mushrooms are sometimes grown in manure so I prefer to rinse them in water rather than wiping them with a damp cloth.
