Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to cook nests with mushrooms? Prepare the ingredients for the filling. Instead of champignons, you can use any other edible mushrooms. You may need to boil them before frying (especially if you have wild mushrooms). Frozen and dried are also suitable. You can replace wild garlic with spinach. Or remove it completely by adding cheese to the filling. Take vegetables that are juicy and ripe.

Wash the champignons, dry and cut into slices.
