Toastie Time
It’s getting colder outside so it’s time to get toastie with toasties! Try this delish mushroom, garlic, red onion and Jarlsberg cheese toastie – made with your fave plant based Nuttelex – it’s the perfect midweek munch! For a scrumptious vegan-take use Vegan Gouda flavour cheese.
This recipe makes 2 x toasties:
2 tbsp Nuttelex
1 tsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic minced
½ small red onion peeled and finely chopped
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch freshly cracked black pepper
250 g mushrooms sliced
1 pinch salt
4 slices of your favourite bread
6 slices jarlsberg cheese (or vegan Gouda alternative)
¼ cup fresh coriander, finely chopped (optional)
Instructions
1) Use 1 tbsp Nuttelex to butter each piece of bread on one side.
2) Warm the olive oil and remaining 1 tbsp Nuttelex in a large pan over a low heat. Add the garlic, onions, cayenne and black pepper. Saute for about 5 minutes until the colour deepens, and onions are soft.
3) Turn up the heat, add the mushrooms. Fry for 2-3 minutes until just beginning to brown on both sides. Taste and add a little salt, if needed. Tip into a bowl and set aside.
4) If needed add ad extra dollop of Nuttelex before placing the first two slices of bread in the pan, Nuttelex side down. Use half the cheese to top each slice of bread. Layer the mushrooms on top and sprinkle with coriander. Layer on the remaining cheese. Top each toastie with the remaining slices of bread, Nuttelex side up. Put a lid on the pan to help the heat to reach the cheese.
5) Flip the toasties when they’re golden underneath and replace the lid again. When the bread is golden on both sides and the cheese is melted, remove from the pan, cut in half, and serve.
