They are a great source of vitamins and a delicious meat substitute! I especially love to combine different types of mushrooms for a mix of tastes and textures.  The versatility of mushrooms is hard to match. They could be used in so many different ways.

The inspiration for this mushroom marsala sauce comes from one of the most popular recipes on our site Chicken Marsala. As much as people love tender and juicy chicken in that recipe, what undoubtedly makes it a firm favourite is the mushroom sauce flavoured with Italian fortified Marsala wine.  The ingredients that enhance and compliment the sauce are onion, garlic, parsley and a touch of heavy cream for that luscious velvety texture.  How to Make It Julia’s Tips Making this mushroom sauce is very easy and quick. Here are a few tips that will help you to get the most flavour out of your ingredients.  Prepare the base of your sauce by sauteing your onions until tender and translucent. Don’t rush this step. Well cooked onions add a layer of flavour that shouldn’t be skipped.  Cook the garlic over low heat to avoid burning, otherwise it impart a bitter taste to the sauce.  Brown the mushroom until golden. Another way to add extra flavour.  Thicken the sauce with flour mixed with olive oil left in the pan from browning onions and vegetables.  Deglaze the pan with a sweet Marsala wine and let it bubble away until it reduces. Finally, add a splash of cream over low heat at the very end.
