Stuffed Mushroom Caps
These savoury stuffed mushroom caps are filled with a flavourful mixture of bacon, fresh breadcrumbs, garlic, spring onions, and Parmesan cheese, all bound with a lightly beaten egg. After a quick cook on the stove, the filling is pressed into mushroom caps and baked until golden. The recipe yields ten individual portions, making it an ideal appetiser or side dish that comes together in about 35 minutes.
