Garlic Sauteed Mushrooms

Garlic Sauteed Mushrooms

Choose mushrooms that you like. I used 1 pound plain white mushrooms, but others are fine too. Wipe them with a damp paper towel and slice or quarter them. Put about 2-3 T. olive oil in a skillet and heat until hot, add a lot of minced garlic. I used 9 big cloves of a very peppery garlic, and added a pinch of crushed red pepper and freshly ground black pepper. Cook the garlic for about 1 minute and then add the mushrooms and stir them around with the garlic until the mushrooms have cooked the way you like them (5 to 10 minutes usually). Part of the fun is to pull out a mushroom occasionally and eat it. When it’s ready, toss in some chopped herbs (I used parsley) and serve as a side dish or add it to couscous or pasta. Kiss a lot of people, to share the wonderful garlic aroma.
