  • Balsamic or malt vinegar

Instructions: 

Cover the bottom of a frying pan with any, or a mix, of the liquid above, along with a few dashes of spice. Heat to just medium. Place mushrooms in the pan and cook for about 8 minutes on medium heat.  It depends on how thick the mushrooms are.  You may need to lower heat, and add more liquid – splash with vinegar or .  Keep a touch of liquid in the bottom of the pan as the mushrooms cook, and allow them to brown but not blacken.  Flip the mushrooms and cook for approximately another 5 minutes, using the same guidelines.
