Introduction

Stuffed mushrooms are so versatile and make a terrific meal by themself. I sometimes use a slightly smaller mushroom and serve the filled caps as a vegetable with roast lamb and other vegetables.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup couscous
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • ½ red onion, finely sliced
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • 1 roasted red capsicum, sliced
  • 100g fetta, crumbled
  • 425g can GREENSEAS Tuna Chunks in Oil , drained
  • ¼ cup slivered almonds, toasted
  • ¼ cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh coriander, chopped
  • 8 large field mushrooms, stems removed
  • ½ cup natural yoghurt
  • 3 tsp lemon juice
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Combine couscous with ½ cup boiling water. Cover 5 minutes. Stir with a fork and set aside. 
  2. Heat oil in a large frying pan. Add onion and cumin, cook for 2-3 minutes or until onion has softened.  Add to the couscous with the capsicum, fetta, GREENSEAS tuna , almonds, parsley and coriander. Mix well.
  3. Lay mushrooms cap side down on a lined oven tray. Fill with couscous mixture and drizzle with extra oil. Bake in a preheated oven of 180°C for 10-15 minutes, or until  mushrooms are tender.
  4. Combine yoghurt and lemon juice in a small bowl, mix well. Serve mushrooms with yoghurt sauce sprinkled with paprika.
