Love serving this as a starter with a side of arugula salad 😋 To make this delicious-ness...

You'll need:

• 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed if frozen

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• 1 pound (450g) fresh mushrooms (such as cremini or button mushrooms), cleaned and sliced

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• Salt and black pepper, to taste

• 1/4 cup balsamic glaze or very high quality balsamic vinegar

• 4 - 6 ounces (113g) goat cheese, crumbled

• Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Prepare the mushrooms: 🍄 In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are golden brown, and any liquid released from the mushrooms has evaporated, about 8-10 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

3. Roll out the puff pastry: Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases. Cut it into smaller squares or rectangles or keep it whole and crimp the edges.

4. Assemble the pastries: Place a spoonful of the sautéed mushrooms in the center of each pastry square. Top the mushrooms with crumbled goat cheese.

5. Bake: Transfer the assembled pastries to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed up.

6. Finish with balsamic glaze: Remove the pastries from the oven and drizzle balsamic glaze over the top. You can adjust the amount of glaze to your taste.

Garnish and serve: Sprinkle the pastries with fresh chopped parsley for a burst of color and added freshness.
