Method

Count an even number of mushrooms per head and put them in a buttered ovenproof dish. Or slice the mushrooms and divide them between shallow individual dishes. Cream the butter, add the chopped garlic and beat in the lemon juice, the salt, pepper, nutmeg, breadcrumbs and parsley.

Cover the mushrooms as evenly as possible with the butter mixture and cook in a fairly hot oven, 400°F/200°C
