A little sweet, a little tangy, with a perfectly caramelised flavor.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 8 minutes
Servings: 2
Course: Breakfast, Main Course, Side Dish
Cuisine: continental

Ingredients
  

  • 200 grams button mushrooms (Champignons)
  • 1 red onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly crushed black pepper
  • 1 tsp Balsamic vinegar (aceto balsamico)*could be found at well stocked grocery stores in Germany

Method
 

  1. Clean and slice the mushrooms. Slice the red onion and finely chop the garlic.
  2. Put a big skillet on medium heat and add the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the onion and garlic. Sauté for about 3 minutes, until the onion just start to get brown.
  3. Add the mushrooms, salt and pepper. Sauté for 5 minutes on medium heat, stirring constantly. The mushrooms will get darker and tender.
  4. After 5 minutes, add the balsamic vinegar and sauté for another minute.
  5. Take off heat and transfer to a serving bowl/storage container. The balsamic glazed mushrooms pair really well with sunny side up or scrambled eggs.

Notes

  • To get the best results, use a big and wide pan and do not overcrowd it.
  • You can store cooked mushrooms into an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
