Ingredients

  • 2 king oyster mushrooms

  • 1 garlic clove, bashed (optional)
  • flaky sea salt

Carefully slice the mushrooms in half lengthways. Lightly score a 5mm diagonal crisscross pattern into the cut side of the mushrooms. This will help the mushroom cook more evenly as well as allowing the seasoning to thoroughly penetrate the flesh

Place a pan over high heat. Once the pan is almost smoking, add a drizzle of oil and the mushrooms cut-side down. Turn the heat down to medium-high
3
Cook for 3–5 minutes depending on the size of the mushroom, until they turn a nice golden color
4
Add the butter to the pan. Once melted, add the thyme and garlic and season with salt
5
Turn the mushrooms over and baste with the foaming butter until they are cooked all the way through
6
Drain on kitchen roll, sprinkle with flaky sea salt and serve hot
