An unusual and tasty little starter, the mushrooms are scrumptious with the melted cheese topping. Gouda cheese, mushrooms and garlic go so well together and whilst this makes a good starter it would be very easy to increase the ingredients to make a larger quantity for a lunch or supper dish. Serve with a green salad and crusty bread.

1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
350g button mushrooms, thinly sliced

Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the onion and fry gently until softened but not browned.
Add the mushrooms and garlic and fry lightly for 2 minutes until tender.
Add the wine and continue to cook until the juices have evaporated – this will take about 5 minutes.
