The Perfect Sauteed Mushrooms
Sauteed mushrooms and onions are a staple side dish in any steakhouse or restaurant. They add an amazing texture and flavour to dishes. I should admit that pan seared mushrooms are very easy to make in minutes, but there are some things that can take regular sautéed mushrooms from just good to extraordinary.
If you love mushrooms, we recommend to try our Garlic Mushrooms, Sautéed Mushrooms with Green Chili, Marinated Mushrooms or Stuffed Mushrooms. You can enjoy them for breakfast, serving on your toasts or as side dishes.
