4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
400 grams Fresh mushrooms
A little flour
120 millilitres Red wine
100 millilitres Honey
¼ cup Lemon juice; (60 ml.)
1 teaspoon Garlic paste; (5 g.)
4 teaspoons Fresh basil; (20 g.)
½ teaspoon Thyme; (2 g.)
20 grams Sun dried tomatoes
100 grams Mozzarella cheese; cubed
Salt to taste
A few basil leaves for garnishing
A few lemon wedges for garnishing

Directions

WASH the fresh mushrooms with a slurry flour and water mixture to make sure it is clear of all dirt. Mushrooms being a fungi, it is better to clean the mushrooms for a second time. Wipe the mushrooms till dry and gently prick them with a fork all over, so that they do not tear open. In a bowl mix the red wine, honey and lemon juice well. Add the garlic, basil and thyme to the dressing. Blanch the sun dried tomatoes in hot water until soft and give a bite, but are not elastic and chewy. Add the tomatoes and the mushrooms to the dressing. Heat the dressing until just warm. This enhances the taste and the flavours become distinct. When cool, refrigerate for at least two hours.

Transfer to a serving bowl, sprinkle chunks of mozzarella and salt to taste. Wet the cheese and mushrooms with the dressing. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and lemon wedges. Serve chilled.
