Directions
Chimney Stacks – Savoury Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms!, This recipe was devised when I found that the mushroom stalks from some fairly hefty sized Portobello Mushrooms, would just not fit into the stuffing mixture, even though they were finely diced! So, I made chimney stacks from the offending stalks and served them as a starter at dinner for some friends, who LOVED them! They would also be wonderful as a light lunch, allow two per person with fresh bread & salad Do not be tempted to add ANY liquid to the mushrooms before baking them – they make their own gorgeous juices whilst merrily cooking away in the oven! You must also be sure to get very HIGH quality sausages or sausagemeat, with no more than 10% fat preferably , Really nice dish I cooked the sausage beforehand in order to remove the extra fat, and then mixed it with the remaining ingredients I omitted the salt and filled the baking dish with water, saving the olive oil to do a light drizzle on top of each Thanks for sharing, and thanks for being such a great hostess in Every day is a holiday!
