Mushroom Crostini


You wake up, get up, make a cup of tea, feel hungry, think about having some breakfast, and of course, if you are me, you turn to nigella for another recipe to tick off. But, nigella doesn't really do breakfast, at least not in "How To Eat". Tara wasn't really on for the suggested Jam Tarts and Custard for breakfast, so mushroom crostini it was, turned basically into mushrooms on toast.

- Put 2 tablespoons olive oil in a pan, add 2 finely chopped sprigs thyme and 1 finely choppedclove garlic, and heat for a few mins while the oil hots up.
- Add 200g finely sliced mushrooms and cook until soft.
- Add 1 tablespoon grated parmesan, season, and sprinkle with parsley.

For mushroom crostini, nigella suggests finely chopping the mushrooms rather than slicing, and also combining everything afterwards in a processor. It makes a tasty mushrooms on toast recipe, although maybe using butter instead of olive oil, would make it even tastier.
