Garlic Butter Button Mushroom Armadillos

Makes 4

 

Ingredients

50g best-quality butter at room temperature

3 cloves garlic, crushed

handful soft herbs (parsley, coriander, chervil, chives etc), finely chopped

¼ tsp chilli flakes or finely chopped fresh chilli to taste (optional)

500g large whole Button mushrooms, stalks removed

4 long wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

 

Method

1 Mix together the butter, garlic, herbs and chilli, if using.

2 Fill the mushrooms with the butter and thread them onto the skewers, packing them tightly together so the filling isn’t lost during cooking. Place over a hot braai, turning often, to allow the mushrooms to get grill marks, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a double foil “boat” if you’d like to cook further and are losing butter to the flames.

3 Serve in place of garlic bread.
