Yes, there was some left over from a spanokopita and I was doing that thing of going through the fridge trying to concoct a dish that uses up the bits and bobs I found. It worked out well, but I think was a bit more dense than the quiche-like consistency of the original recipe.
Mushrooms were cooked with garlic and thyme, then I added feta, eggs, and some cream. I used fill pastry because itβs light and crunchy. And the whole dish was made with odds and ends I had in the refrigerator π
π I think itβs a very adaptable dish and quantities donβt seem to matter too much, as long as the pastry case holds however much mushroom filling you make. I was going to use muffin cases, but (photographerβs vanity) the little red dish made for a better shot π
Yum yum! Never had mushroom pie but know I would love this one! Just had some mushrooms myself last weekend together with spatzle which are a special kind of German pasta an meatballs. It was yummy but nowhere near of being camera ready. π xxxxxx
π It was the first time I’d made pie with just mushrooms. Next time I’ll try and get a mixture of different kinds, not just the white button ones. π xxxxx
I’ve read about spatzle but never tried it. Did you make it from scratch?
That makes sense. When I looked at how they are made, it did sound quite fiddly and time-consuming. I have never got the hang of making pasta. T is very good at it, but hardly ever makes it. xx
Yummy!! I am hungry and want some too haha!
