Ingredients

  • 500 g mushrooms
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 200 ml heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 loaf baguette
  • 2 tbsp dill
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the 500g mushrooms and mince the 4 garlic cloves. Cut the baguette into 1-inch thick slices.

  2. 2

    Melt 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms in a single layer and cook without stirring for 3-4 minutes until browned on one side.

  3. 3

    Stir the mushrooms and continue cooking until they release their liquid and it evaporates, about 5-7 minutes. Season with 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper.

  4. 4

    Add the remaining 1 tbsp butter and the minced garlic. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant, stirring constantly.

  5. 5

    Pour in the 200ml heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the mushrooms.

  6. 6

    Stir in the 2 tbsp chopped dill and remove from heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

  7. 7

    Toast the baguette slices in a toaster or under the broiler until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes.

  8. 8

    Serve the creamy mushrooms in a bowl with the garlic bread on the side for dipping.
