Stuffed mushrooms

You can make this meal really cheaply, but don't think that sacrifices flavour with large flat mushrooms filled with melted cheese, herbs and garlic and filling, tasty rice

Serves: 2
Prep/cooking time: 20 minutes

What you need:

• 25g (1 oz) butter
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 spring onions, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 stick celery, finely sliced
• 4 large flat mushrooms
• 1 x 250g pack Uncle Ben's® Express Mushroom Rice
• 1 tbsp freshly chopped parsley
• 25g (1 oz) Cheddar cheese, grated

What you do:

1. Melt the butter and half the olive oil in a frying pan and sauté the spring onions, garlic and celery for 2-3 minutes.
2. Cut the stalk for the centre of the mushrooms, chop them and add to the frying pan. Cook for 1-2 minutes then spoon into a bowl.
3. Heat the rice according to the pack instructions, then add to the bowl with the freshly chopped parsley and mix well.
4. Heat the remaining oil in the frying pan and lay the mushrooms, skin side down, into the pan. Spoon the rice mixture into each mushroom and cook for 4-5 minutes over a low heat.
5. Sprinkle each mushroom with the grated cheese and place under a pre-heated grill for 2-3 minutes until golden and bubbling.
