Ingredients
- 4 pieces large portabella mushrooms
- 3 pieces russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.25 cups milk
- 0.5 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Clean the portabella mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Use a spoon to gently scrape out the gills if desired. Set the mushroom caps aside.
Step 3
Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place them in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Step 4
While the potatoes are cooking, place the mushroom caps on a baking sheet. Brush both sides with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Bake for 10 minutes to soften and release excess moisture. Remove from the oven and set aside.
Step 5
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter, milk, cheddar cheese, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Fill each portabella mushroom cap with a generous portion of the mashed potato mixture, mounding it slightly.
Step 7
Drizzle the stuffed mushrooms with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and, if desired, sprinkle paprika lightly on top for a touch of color.
Step 8
Return the stuffed mushrooms to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until heated through and slightly golden on top.
Step 9
Serve warm, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
