Marinated Mushroom Salad




Source of Recipe


mum and i worked this one out years ago






Recipe Introduction


serves about 6 or more as one of several salads at a barbecue or cold table. Good side to meats or a great vegetarian option. Very good friends with all manner of green salads and the leftovers keep pretty well





List of Ingredients



• 500g button or cup mushrooms
  
• 1/2 onion sliced very finely
  
• 1/2 bayleaf (optional)
  
• peppercorns (or ground pepper)
  
• 1-2 cloves garlic (crushed, chopped fine or just leave whole)
  
• juice of 1 lemon (rind optional)
  
• olive oil, twice as much as volume of lemon juice
  
• 1 tsp brown sugar (optional)
  
• 1/2 tsp dijon mustard (or mustard powder)
  
• salt to taste
  
• fresh herbs as available (if you like)
  






Instructions



1. If mushrooms are very small you may like to use them whole or just halve them, otherwise slice them. Miz with onion slices.
   
2. Shake together lemon juice, salt, pepper, oil, mustard, sugar. Add herbs to mushrooms and pour over the dressing.
   
3. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
   






Final Comments


note - even some kids who think they dont like mushroom (based on cooked) will like this tangy, lemony raw mushroom salad
