  2. Slice MUSHROOMS about 1/3 inch thick and bite sized.
  3. Crush GARLIC and chop fine.
Run   -   (15 min)
  1. In a sauté pan, heat Olive Oil and Butter. Over moderate heat, stir in Garlic mix stirring until aromatic, about 30 seconds.
  2. Stir in Mushrooms, tumbling until well coated with the oils. Season with Salt and Pepper, Keep heat moderate (it's butter) and fry stirring often until the mushrooms ave become lightly browned.
  3. Stir in White Wine and deglaze the pan with it. When the wine has pretty much boiled off, the Mushrooms are ready to serve.
  4. Serve warm.
NOTES:
  1. Mushrooms:

      Just about any mushroom can be used. The photo example was made with small King Trumpet Oyster Mushrooms. For details see our Fungus page.
  2. Butter:

      If you want to avoid inconveniencing cows, you can use all Olive Oil - keeping in mind, if everyone was Vegan, there would be no cows. Domesticated cows won't survive in the wild.
  3. Rosemary:

      Other fresh herbs of your choice can be used instead.
