Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 pounds cremini mushrooms, (sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 large onion, (halved and thinly sliced)
  • 1 clove garlic, (minced)
  • 1 large green bell pepper, (sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 cups old cheddar cheese, (grated)
  • 4 large crusty buns

Instruction

  • In a large sauté pan, on medium-high heat, add the olive oil, butter, salt, and pepper.
  • When the butter has melted, add the mushrooms. Stirring often, fry until the mushrooms are lightly browned and beginning to caramelize - about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add the soy sauce and the Worcestershire sauce and stir well.
  • Next, add the onions. Stir into the mushroom mixture and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add in the garlic and green pepper. Stir to combine. Cook until the peppers have softened slightly - about 3-5 minutes.
  • Once the peppers are cooked through, add the fresh thyme leaves and stir through.
  • In the meantime, slice the buns in half and place them on a baking sheet cut side up. Place under the broiler and toast until they are a light golden colour.
  • Remove the buns from the oven. Split the mushroom mixture equally between the buns. Pile the mixture high on the bottom half only.
  • Top the mushroom mixture with the cheese and return the sandwiches to the broiler.
  • Keep a close eye on the cheese - since everything is already cooked, you will just want the cheese to be melted.
  • Plate and serve immediately with chips.
