Father and Stepmother came to spend the night Friday -- at the time
we didn't know that we're going to end up together on Christmas, so
I tried to make dinner special. Standing rib roast, herb & butter
mushrooms, baked spuds, veggie, rolls, and chocolate cream pie for
dessert. I hadn't had the mushrooms for years; they went over very
well, so I thought I'd share the recipe:
Herb Buttered Mushrooms
1 pound fresh white mushrooms
¼ C. chopped onion 2 cloves garlic, minced 4 T. butter 2 T. dry cooking sherry 1 T. snipped fresh
basil OR 1 tsp. dried basil, crushed ¼ tsp. coarsely ground black pepper
Clean mushrooms and cut in half. In large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms,
onion and garlic, cook until mushrooms and onion are tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in sherry
and spices, cook additional 2 - 3 minutes or until heated through.
Happy Holidays, everyone! :-)
