Easiest Butter Garlic Mushroom | Creamy & Delicious Mushroom Recipe | Perfect Starter

Well, butter and garlic are one of the most amazing ingredients in the culinary world. And paired together, of course, it's magic. Today's recipe, butter, garlic, mushrooms. Let's begin. Well, the recipe of butter, garlic and mushrooms literally can use just three ingredients, butter, garlic and mushrooms. And if the butter is salted, you really don't need a fourth ingredient. Now to spike it up really, you can add in some green chillies or chilli flakes or black pepper. But this being a recipe per se, let's take it a couple of notches higher. I am going to introduce in some red onion, some spring onion, some thyme and a little bit of flour. Let's begin. In a wok, let's begin with salted butter, roughly chopped or crushed garlic. We just saute this lightly. Let's add in red onions, sliced. And along with this, refined flour. Well, this is untoasted, but this will now, while cooking, get toasted and done. On medium flame now, the flour needs to start cooking. You need to keep stirring this constantly till there is a nutty aroma which literally fills into your room. The garlic should not burn, the onion should not burn, both should start sweating. And that's the beauty of this. Now, the whole idea and purpose of adding refined flour at this stage is to... Ensure that this naturally starts saucing up like a velouté or a béchamel. Now, velouté is a sauce which thickens with stock and béchamel is a sauce that thickens with milk. The process is roughly the same. But here now you'd ask me, there's no water in the recipe, no milk in the recipe. But when mushrooms start cooking, they leach a lot of water. That water needs to get mixed with this flour, needs to cook and needs to start enveloping the mushrooms. And that's the beauty of this recipe which is a butter garlic mushroom. Now, without wasting time, let's concentrate on this and add in the mushrooms of course. button mushrooms which are cleaned, washed, you may also want to cut it into half or a quarter. Let's add in a touch of black pepper, some thyme. If you have a whole sprig like so, you can just remove these leaves and you can add that in. Or you can drop the whole twig in. Along with this, some chilli flakes. I'm going to just add in a little salt at this stage. Last but not the least, some spring greens. Whack the flame on a complete high and now start cooking and turning this. Well, at this stage, it's important to cook this on high flame because of course, you want it to start just caramelizing and that's just the kind of peak of cooking the mushrooms. But apart from that, it needs to start sweating, it needs to start leaching out the water so that the water gets mixed with the starch and becomes this wonderful sauce. Very important. Well, I feel a little more chili flakes is going to do no harm. So I'm going a little liberal with the chili here and a little more of the spring greens. Now a quick taste check is all that I can say and with this of course the flame. Now what is the Let me test whether the mushrooms are cooked or not. It's very simple. When you look at the mushrooms before and after, as in before cooking and after cooking, the size would have considerably reduced. The water would have leached out. But nevertheless, mushrooms can also be eaten raw. But nevertheless, we've cooked it enough. It's been cooking for almost six, seven minutes. And that's perfect to have the mushrooms being cooking. It's become nice. It's become saucy. It's become beautiful. Now, there are three different notes to this recipe. Now, butter garlic is one note where it's buttery as a note.
