Instructions

Creamy Garlic Mushrooms Sauce

• Give the mushrooms a quick wash.
• Slice length-ways and add the mushrooms to a pan on medium heat, frying for about five-six minutes. No oil needed 🙂
• Chop the onion and garlic and add to the pan. Fry for another five minutes or so, until soft.
• Add the cream, salt and pepper, parsley, soy and Worcestershire sauce.
• Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for another five minutes. Voilà!

Baked Potato

• Microwave the large potato for nine minutes. A medium potato needs seven minutes and a small potato needs five minutes. To add extra potatoes allow an extra four minutes for a large potato, three minutes for a medium potato and two minutes for a small potato. This is using a 1000w microwave – adjust for slightly longer or shorter if yours is a higher or lower power. Don't forget to pierce the potatoes with a fork a few times.
• Chop the halloumi into squares and fry in oil for about five minutes.
• When ready, slice a deep groove through the middle of the potato in both directions. Repeat the process diagonally.
• Add salt and pepper to the potato.
• Pour the creamy mushroom over the potato followed by fried halloumi on top.
• Enjoy!
