Heat half of the oil in a non stick pan and sauté half the onion over a medium heat until soft. Add the mushrooms and fry until slightly caramelised. Remove from the pan.
15 ml olive oil
Heat the remaining oil and fry the remaining onion until golden.
Add the mustard, sherry, garlic and crème fraîche and simmer until the sauce thickens. Add the parsley and season to taste.
1 tsp wholegrain mustard, 30 ml sherry, 1 clove garlic, 100 ml crème fraîche, salt and pepper
Stir in the mushrooms and simmer for a couple of minutes.
Toast the bread, cut into triangles and arrange on two plates.
4 slices granary bread
Spoon the mushrooms over the top, garnish with paprika and parsley sprigs and serve with the watercress.
10 g flat leaf parsley, ⅛ tsp smoked paprika, 60 g watercress
Notes
For a lighter lunch, this could serve 3-4 people. Use cream instead of crème fraîche if desired.It's very easy to make your own crème fraîche. I have a whole post on how to do it.Although mushrooms on toast makes for the speediest option, you could also serve these creamy garlic mushrooms on a bed of rice or on a jacket potato. They'd also make a fabulous pasta sauce.Adapted from Taste of Sunrise
