Creamy Mushroom Gratin with Crispy Bread Recipe

• 9g Tea&Grill BBQ green tea seasoning
• 200g fresh mushrooms, sliced
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 1/4 cup chopped green onions
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, for garnish
• 1/4 cup thinly sliced red chili peppers, for garnish (optional)
• 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions, for garnish
• 4 slices of baguette or crusty bread

• Pat the sliced mushrooms dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped parsley, and chopped green onions. Mix well.
• Rub the olive oil all over the mushrooms, then rub the herb mixture onto the mushrooms, ensuring they are evenly coated. Season the mushrooms generously with salt, black pepper, and 5g of the Tea&Grill BBQ green tea seasoning.

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned mushrooms and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are soft and slightly caramelized. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.

• In the same skillet, add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Let the sauce simmer for about 5-7 minutes, or until it thickens slightly. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until it melts and the sauce is smooth.

• Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F). In a baking dish, layer the cooked mushrooms and pour the creamy sauce over them. Sprinkle with the remaining 4g of Tea&Grill BBQ green tea seasoning.

• Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

• While the gratin is baking, brush the slices of baguette or crusty bread with a little olive oil. Toast the bread slices in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden brown.

• Transfer the creamy mushroom gratin to a serving plate. Garnish with chopped fresh basil, thinly sliced red chili peppers (if using), and thinly sliced green onions.
• Serve the gratin with the crispy bread slices on the side. Enjoy the tender mushrooms in a rich, creamy sauce with the unique flavor of green tea seasoning, paired with crispy bread.
