Baked Portobello Mushroom

I am a big fan of mushrooms. Have always loved these little fungi, be it Portobello or button mushrooms or even Enoki mushrooms. Whenever I eat out I would surely order a plate of mushroom as my appetizer. I remember once I ordered a baked Portobello mushroom and it cost me whooping RM 15 for just ONE piece of it. Expensive and overcharged indeed. After that experience I decided to try to bake my own Portobello mushrooms instead of letting them charged me such expensive price.

The other day, I bought myself a packed of Portobello mushrooms from supermarket. It only cost me RM 9.99 for a pack of 8 pieces :) And today, I'm just in the mood for some baked mushrooms. After browsing for some recipes online, I decided to follow a simple recipe from a blog I read. I did add additional ingredients to the original recipe as per what I have in my fridge ;P

Baked Portobello Mushroom (My way!)

Ingredients :
8 Portobello Mushrooms
2 tomatoes, chopped
2 green onions, chopped
3 strips of bacon, chopped
a dash of mixed herb (it's up to you whether you want to put this or not)
a pinch of salt and pepper to taste
Mozarella cheese

Methods :
1. Removed the stem of the mushrooms.
2. Heat up a pan and fried the bacon till half cooked.
3. In a bowl, mix in the tomatoes, onions, half cooked bacon, mixed herb, salt and pepper. Mix well.
4. Meanwhile, heat the oven in moderate temperature and grease a baking tray.
5. Stuff the mushroom with the mix and place it on the baking tray. Bake for 15mins.
6. Half way through, spread some cheese over the stuffed mushroom and continue to bake for another 15 mins or until cheese melts.

The verdict :
A yummy-licious baked Portobello mushroom at a much cheaper price at the comfort of your home and not forgetting, with all the ingredients that you love.
The photos might not look so nice as I am only using my phone camera. Nevertheless the taste that is most important
