Ingredients

  

Mushroom

• 12-15  Cremini Mushrooms or button mushrooms
• 1 tsp  Olive Oil
• ⅛ tsp  Salt
• ⅛ tsp  Crushed Black Pepper
• 1 tsp  Balsamic Vinegar

Filling

• ¼ cup  Bell Pepper (I used rainbow peppers)
• ¼ cup  Onion ,chopped
• 2 tbsp  Cilantro ,chopped
• 1 tbsp  Jalapeno or green chili, finely chopped
• ½ cup  Grated Mozzarella Cheese Or any assorted shredded cheese
• 1 tsp  Ground Coriander
• ¼ tsp  Salt
• ¼ tsp  Paprika or Kashmiri Red Chilli

Instructions

 

Prepare the Mushrooms

• Gently clean each mushroom using a damp cloth until it’s clean. Remove stems from each mushroom and only collect the mushrooms’ cap hollow for the recipe.
• Now, in a bowl toss the mushroom caps with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and balsamic vinegar. Keep aside to let it cool.

Make the filling

• Take another bowl and combine chopped peppers, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, shredded cheese, and spices in that. Mix everything until it is well mixed.

Filling the Mushrooms

• Now using a small spoon, stuff the mushroom caps carefully with the filling. Use the back of the spoon to press the pack the filling into the mushroom cap hollow. Make sure you fill each mushroom pretty full.

Cooking the Mushrooms in Oven

• Pre-heat the oven to 400°F for 2-3 minutes. Before inserting mushrooms directly into the oven, place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet or aluminum foil sheet. Bake them for 15 to 18 minutes. Make sure your mushrooms turn dark brown, and the cheese melts and looks slightly golden brown.

Cooking the Mushrooms in Air Fryer

• Carefully place the stuffed mushrooms in the air fryer basket. Cook at 320°F for at least 9-10 minutes.
• Let the mushrooms rest for serving on a platter. Enjoy!
