So Who cooks?
OK I know as IT pros we normally have the cooking skills of reach for the take-away menu and dial the number, but I know for a fact that some of us like cooking! And I thought we should get together sharing our recipes.
Last week I hit upon this wonder:
Chili, Garlic, Mushrooms!
You will need;
Method.
Serve in either a small bowl, or on really nice toasted bread with some salad, it makes a perfect starter or a beautiful make me up breakfast.

Last week I hit upon this wonder:
Chili, Garlic, Mushrooms!
You will need;
- Mushrooms (enough to your personal taste).
- 3 Large cloves of garlic (can adjust to taste).
- 1 Scotch bonnet chilli per person, this is essential.
- 1 Tablespoon of oil,
- 50g of butter per person.
- Some sea salt and a little black pepper.
- Really good bread to toast and serve on (optional).
Method.
- Take a decent portion of mushrooms and slice thinly.
- Take a bunch of garlic cloves and sprinkle with salt and then chop or mince as fine as you can (if you use a blender or coffee grinder add a table spoon of water).
- Chop the Scotch bonnet as fine as you can, use one bonnet per person (the butter removes the pain and leaves the flavour).
- Add the oil and butter to a frying pan on a medium heat, and melt the butter.
- Once the butter is melted, add the garlic, chilli and mushrooms to the pan and raise the heat to as high as you can.
- Fry for a about 2 - 5 minutes; this is really subjective, when you consider the mushrooms cooked, it's done.
