Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F/180°C.
  2. Saute the onion until soft and translucent in a medium sized pan.
  3. Add the sausage (removed from their casings) and chopped garlic and fry until browned (about 2 mins). If there's a lot of excess fat then spoon some out of the pan so it's not too wet. Add the sausage mixture to a bowl and leave to cool slightly.
  4. Next add the gorgonzola, parmesan, parsley, and pepper to the bowl and mix to combine with the sausage mixture.
  5. Rub the portobello mushrooms in a little oil and sprinkle them with salt.
  6. Stuff the mushrooms (stalks removed) with the sausage mixture, place on a baking tray and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Serve with extra parsley and gorgonzola if desired.

Notes

  • Italian sausages are normally quite salty so no additional salt was need in the filling although you may need to use it according to what sausages you use.
  • If the mushrooms have any dirt on them wipe it off with a lightly dampened kitchen towel or cloth. Never wash mushrooms or get them too wet as they'll absorb all of the moisture.
  • You can prep these ahead of time and store them in the fridge.
  • Leftovers can be eaten cold or reheated in the oven for a couple of minutes until piping hot all the way through.
  • If you're not a fan of gorgonzola feel free to use any good melting cheese such as mozzarella, fontina or gruyere.
  • You can also use hot Italian sausage if you prefer but I recommend changing the cheese from gorgonzola to one mentioned above.
  • You can absolutely swap the portobello mushrooms for button or crimini (chestnut) mushrooms which are smaller and are perfect as a party appetizer.
  • The mushrooms can be frozen (unbaked) and baked from frozen for around 40 minutes or until cooked all the way through.
