“Every time I return from a funghi hunt even if I only have a few varied specimens, then it is time to make this exciting salad. It can be eaten as a starter by itself, or can accompany fish dishes or cold roast meats. It may be eaten hot or cold.”

Ingredients

  • 500 ml water
  • 250 ml strong white wine vinegar
  • salt and pepper

Method

Bring the water and vinegar to the boil in a stainless-steel pan with 1 tsp salt and the bay leaves. Throw the mushrooms into the boiling liquid and cook for 8-10 minutes. Drain and discard the liquid.

Put the olive oil, garlic and chilli into a large pan and fry very briefly. Add the drained mushrooms and toss in the pan to let them absorb the oil and its flavourings. Season to taste w
