A crispy mushroom treat for a special occasion.

Ingredients:

2 brown onions, thinly sliced

2 garlic cloves, crushed

2 Tbsp honey

500 g button mushrooms, sliced

100 g lite brie cheese, chopped

2 Tbsp flat-leaf parsley, chopped

1 salt & ground black pepper, to taste

2 sheets frozen ready roll reduced-fat puff pastry

1 medium egg, lightly beaten

Directions:

Preheat oven 200ºC. Lightly spray pan with cooking spray, and heat over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and cook, stirring often for 10 minutes or until soft and light golden.

Stir in the honey, cook for 2 minutes. Add mushrooms, increase the heat to high and cook for 8 minutes or until all the liquid evaporates. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Stir the cheese, parsley and salt and pepper into mushroom mixture.

Line a baking tray with baking paper, or lightly spray with cooking spray. Cut 1 sheet of pastry in half, place onto baking tray, allowing room for spreading.

Spoon the mushroom mixture evenly over the two pastry halves, leaving a 1 cm border around the edges. Cut the second pastry sheet in half and place on top, pressing the edges together.

Cut a cross in the centre, brush with egg & season with salt and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until puffed & golden.

Variations:

Serve with a green salad. Serving suggestion not included in the nutritional information.
