This dish can be served as a garnish, starter, or side dish for any type of meal. It is packed with flavor from the garlic and fresh herbs, making it a perfect complement to any meat or fish. Additionally, it is both nutritious and rich in flavor.

When preparing stuffed mushrooms for a gathering or a party with an uncertain number of guests, it’s a good idea to double or even triple the ingredients, as these will likely be a favorite snack. To make the process easier, you can stuff the mushroom caps in advance—just do it on the same day as the event (for instance, in the morning). Then, about 30 minutes before the party begins, bake them in the oven. The cooking time is approximately 20 minutes, and allow an additional 10 minutes for the mushrooms to cool before serving.

Here are my favorite dishes to have for a party:

Ingredients for Stuffed Mushrooms:

Basic Stuffed Mushrooms Ingredients

  • 10-15 whole fresh white mushrooms;
  • 250 g hard cheese, grated;
  • 20 g mixture of fresh herbs, chopped;
  • 2 garlic cloves;
  • 1 onion;
  • 1 tbsp. vegetable oil;
  • Salt and pepper to your taste.

How to make stuffed mushrooms in the oven at home:

  • Remove the stems and set them aside. Hollow out every mushroom cap. Make sure not to scrape the surface and leave the caps intact. Chop mushroom stems and scooped pulp into small pieces.

Cut the stems out

  • Chop onion into the same size that you had mushroom stems chopped. Take a skillet, pour oil and heat it on the medium to high heat. Add chopped onion and cook it for several minutes until soft.

Saute onion in the skillet

  • Add chopped mushrooms to the onion and cook it for 5 minutes on medium heat. Do not forget to stir the mixture from time to time to prevent burning.

Add chopped mushroom stems

  • Season vegetables in the skillet with salt, black pepper, and pressed garlic. Take the skillet from the heat and set aside to cool down.

Add seasoning

  • Meanwhile, grate hard cheese and chop the fresh herbs into small pieces.

Grate cheese and chop fresh herbs

  • Combine sautéed vegetables with half of the grated cheese and the whole amount of fresh herbs in a separate bowl.

Combine vegetables from skillet with cheese and herbs

  • Take any baking tray or casserole you have, anything will do the job. Smear it with vegetable oil. Stuff each mushroom cap with cheese mixture and place it in the baking form.

Stuff mushrooms with the mixture

  • Sprinkle the leftover grated cheese over each stuffed mushroom. If you are not opposed to mayonnaise, you can add it to make the cheese topping stick.

Sprinkle leftover cheese as a top layer

  • Preheat oven at 350ºF/180°C. Bake mushrooms for 20 minutes. Cheese at the top should melt and form a nice golden crust.

Bake for 20 minutes

  • Serve still warm with sprinkled over fresh herbs! Enjoy your meal!
