📜 A Little History of Fried Mushrooms
Mushrooms have been cooked for thousands of years. Ancient Romans called them “Food of the Gods.” In European kitchens, especially in France and Eastern Europe, pan-fried mushrooms became a classic side dish served with bread, potatoes, or meat.
Champignons (button mushrooms) became popular because they are affordable, mild in flavor, and absorb garlic and butter beautifully.
This recipe follows that tradition — simple farmhouse cooking that turns humble mushrooms into something unforgettable.
🛒 Ingredients
300 g fresh champignon mushrooms
30 g butter
1–2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1–2 cloves garlic (finely chopped or minced)
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
A small bunch of fresh parsley (chopped)
🍳 Preparation & Formation Method
Step 1: Prepare the Mushrooms
Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel.
Do NOT soak them in water (they absorb moisture).
Slice into halves or thick slices.
Uniform size helps even cooking.
Step 2: Heat the Pan Properly
Place a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
Add:
Vegetable oil first (prevents butter from burning).
Then add butter and let it melt.
The mix of oil + butter gives perfect golden color without burning.
Step 3: Fry the Mushrooms (Important Method!)
Add mushrooms in a single layer.
Do NOT overcrowd the pan.
Do NOT stir immediately.
Let them cook untouched for 3–4 minutes. This helps them brown instead of steam.
When golden underneath, stir and cook another 3–4 minutes.
You’ll notice:
Water releases first.
Then it evaporates.
Then mushrooms begin caramelizing.
That’s where the magic happens.
Step 4: Add Garlic
When mushrooms are golden and tender:
Add minced garlic.
Stir and cook only 30–60 seconds.
Garlic burns quickly, so add it near the end.
Step 5: Season & Finish
Add salt and black pepper.
Turn off heat.
Sprinkle fresh chopped parsley.
Toss gently.
Your mushrooms should be: ✔ Golden ✔ Glossy ✔ Buttery ✔ Fragrant
