Lemon Marinated Mushrooms
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup white wine
- 1/2 cup Olive Oil
- Juice of one lemon – approx 1/2 cup
- 8 peppercorns
- 12 juniper berries
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled and halved
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme – leaves stay on the stem
- 3 bay leaves
- 0.5 tablespoon salt
- 1kg small, white mushrooms
- 2 tbsp chopped parsley
Method
- 1. Lightly crush the juniper berries and the peppercorns with the side of a knife.
- 2. Place all the ingredients (except the mushrooms and parsley) in a saucepan and boil fiercely for about 10 minutes UNTIL REDUCED TO ABOUT 1/8 OF IT’S ORIGINAL AMOUNT, then add the mushrooms and simmer for about 10 minutes or until they’re tender. Water will come out of the mushrooms to create enough juice.
- 3. Place in a serving dish and leave to cool. Only add enough liquid to semi-cover.
- 4. When cool, taste and adjust seasonings then sprinkle with parsley just prior to serving.
