Handy Hint |
||||||||||||||||||
MethodFinely shred the white parts of the leeks - you should have about 75g and add to the hot oil together with the mushrooms and rosemary.Stir fry over fairly high heat for 1-2 minutes until just beginning to soften and brown. Spoon into a bowl, including rosemary, and add sherry, soy sauce and a few grinds of pepper. Cover and cool. Just before serving, remove the rosemary and drain off most of the marinade. Enlarge cavities of haleved avacados a little and spoon in the filling. Top with a sprig of parsley and serve with salt & black pepper. | |||||||||||||||||||
