Remarks
It's even better if you can get several kinds of mushrooms. This time I have only used oyster mushrooms, but adding chanterelles would be great.

In which case I suggest you cook each type of mushroom separately, in the same way (2 minutes), and put in the strainer one after the other. In this way each kind keeps its characteristic flavour, and the mixing happens at the last minute.

No spring onions? Just use normal ones.

Instead of ordinary cured ham, if possible use those amazing Spanish hams with their great taste.
Keeping: Several days in the fridge, covered by a plastic film.
