Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 5 min.

Simple mushroom salad with thyme and lemon, 3 ways

Slice 800 g button or field mushrooms.

Stage 2 - 3 min.

Mix in a bowl: 4 tablespoons olive oil, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, the thyme leaves (picked off the stem), salt and pepper. Mix well.

Stage 3 - 1 min.

Pour this dressing over the mushrooms, mix well and add a little chopped parsley if you like.

That's all there is to it.

Stage 4

The beauty of this recipe is that you can eat it just as it is: a fresh salad of crunchy mushrooms.

Or you can leave it to stand for a good hour or so in the fridge covered with plastic film for a tender salad of marinated mushrooms.

Or, for yet another twist: fry up quickly in a pan, without adding any extra fat, for simple sautéed mushrooms.

Remarks

You can use other types of mushroom, but they do need to be fresh and raw.

Keeping

2 days at most in the fridge.
