Baked Mushrooms and Potatoes Recipe
Ingredients:
- Potatoes: 500g (about 4 medium potatoes), peeled and cut into cubes
- Mushrooms: 300g (any variety, such as cremini or button), sliced
- Onion: 1 medium, sliced
- Garlic: 3 cloves, minced
- Olive Oil: 3 tablespoons
- Thyme: 1 teaspoon (or other herbs like rosemary or oregano)
- Salt: to taste
- Pepper: to taste
- Parmesan Cheese: 50g, grated (optional)
- Fresh Parsley: for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
-
Prepare the Vegetables:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed potatoes, sliced mushrooms, and onion.
-
Season the Mixture:
- Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables. Add the minced garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the vegetables are well coated.
-
Transfer to Baking Dish:
- Spread the mixture evenly in a baking dish. Make sure the potatoes are in a single layer for even cooking.
-
Bake:
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for about 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the foil and stir the mixture to ensure even cooking.
- Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and golden brown.
-
Add Cheese (optional):
- If using, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top during the last 10 minutes of baking. This will create a nice, cheesy crust.
-
Serve:
- Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Tips:
- You can add other vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini for more flavor and variety.
- For a spicier kick, consider adding red pepper flakes.
